Issues accessing multiple Proxmox dashboard via local services
I'm unable to access multiple Proxmox dashboards. As soon as I log into a second dashboard, it invalidates the first. I'm not sure if this is a Proxmox or XPipe issue. Is anyone able to replicate and/or have any guidance?
Also, I have a homelab license currently, so shouldn't be hitting into such a limit.
It invalidates the session and Proxmox states "invalid ticket". This only seems to happen when using local services from XPipe. So log into host#1. Log into host#2. host#1 is logged out with below message.
After further testing, I suspect this is just a limitation between Proxmox tunneled localhost connections, and browser cache. It seems every localhost connection nullifies any existing ones. Likely nothing XPipe can do.
Are there any plans for non-tunneled service connections? Essentially shortcuts.
This limitation makes tunneled connections for Proxmox dashboards pretty useless, unless one only uses a single host at a time. Would be nice to set a non-tunneled dashboard service connection.
If your dashboards do not require a tunnel, then I guess this is the same feature request for opening websites, which I will look into for XPipe 19.
But in general, you can report this issue to proxmox. If your dashboards are not reachable from the outside, tunneling is usually the best option. And if that breaks with multiple, then this is an issue.
If this is some sort of cache issue, does it make a difference if you use a different hostname like 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost in the browser for the dashboard?
That works yes, so max of 2 accessible hosts now, good spot. I suspect it may be Proxmox's self-signed certificate. Thanks, will open an issue with Proxmox.
Regarding non-tunneling, yes that would at least give the user an option around this, whilst still using XPipe as a connection hub for non-tunneled services. Looking forward to it.
I implemented an automatic rotation of various localhost addresses in https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe-ptb
You can try out whether that works for you now without having to manually change any URLs
The latest release now rotates the address like that, and should allow at least 2 services at the same time
