NodeRED RED-V-0204.0+3.1.0-ctrlx does not start when using a proxy

[CtrlXplorer]

Hello everyone, I encountered the following issue:

Used software :

• ctrlX CORE Virtual image version 2.40
• NodeRED RED-V-0204.0+3.1.0-ctrlx 

After enabling the proxy tool (Px.exe) and configuring the proxy settings (ctrlX Core Virtual -> Settings -> Proxy) NodeRED web app displays the message:  The app is currently not available. I waited for 10+ minutes, refreshed the page but I got the same message.

However, when I disable the proxy settings (ctrlX Core Virtual -> Settings -> Proxy). NodeRed starts flawlessly. However, since I am connected to a corporate WiFi network, I do not have any internet access in the ctrlX Core.

Note: I managed to resolve the issue by downgrading to a lower version of the:

• CtrlX Core Virtual image version 1.20.9
• NodeRED RED-V-120.0+3.0.2-ctrlx

Hello,

See, we were able to reproduce, we will open an internal ticket to fix this 🙂

PS i tried with the image 2.04 and node-red 2.2.0+3.0.2-ctrlx and is also working! so i think we have to check what is new in node-red from this point of view 🙂

Hi,
sorry for the late reply. I just tested your mentioned configuration 2.4 image and node-red version 2.2.0+3.0.2-ctrlx and I can confirm that NodeRED starts sucessfuly. 🙂

We are working on a more clean way to start node-red with the proxy for the next releases 😁
meanwhile i don't think that makes really a huge difference to use this or the other version!
