Hi I'm having issues getting the dashboard to work as per the image.

My dashboard settings:

{
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": "8000",
    "password": "<DASH_PASS>",
    "redirect_url": "https://vocard.domain.com/callback"
}

My vocard settings (the IPC part):

    "ipc_client": {
        "host": "127.0.0.1",
        "port": 8000,
        "password": "<DASH_PASS>",
        "secure": false,
        "enable": true
    },

My nginx config (i have a wildcard cert):

server {
    server_name vocard.domain.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;

        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

        proxy_read_timeout 600s;
        proxy_send_timeout 600s;
    }
    include /etc/nginx/ssl_cert.conf;
}

I added the bot to my server with the following URL, so not sure if i'm missing some perms: https://discord.com/oauth2/authorize?client_id=<MY_BOT_CLIENT_ID>&scope=bot&permissions=377960279040

The only error i've seen on nginx side:

2025/12/24 22:04:50 [error] 1518383#1518383: *189 connect() failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: <MY_PUBLIC_IP>, server: vocard.domain.com, request: "GET /ws_user HTTP/1.1", upstream: "http://127.0.0.1:8000/ws_user", host: "vocard.domain.com"

copper beacon The only error i've seen on nginx side: ``` 2025/12/24 22:04:50 [error] 1518383...

Does your nginx config have websockets enabled? If not, you must enable them for the dashboard to work

#

looks like i didn't have my correct headers, the red error on the page has disappeard, and i see the 101 response on the network tab on firefox

#

but i still get an error on the back

#

looks like i got it

#

i was tryign with my domain in the host portion in the vocard config, and that was throwing me an error

#

i reverted back to what i posted here, and added modified the nginx config for the wss and it works now apparently

wooden pasture Dec 25, 2025, 4:56 AM

#

hmm glad to hear that. Your logs looked healthy to me though

copper beacon Dec 25, 2025, 4:57 AM

Added:

proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";

so my nginx config now looks like this:

server {
    server_name vocard.domain.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;

        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

        proxy_read_timeout 600s;
        proxy_send_timeout 600s;
    }
    include /etc/nginx/ssl_cert.conf;
}

#

for anyone stumbling upon this

wooden pasture hmm glad to hear that. Your logs looked healthy to me though

yeah idk, it was a super weird issue, i was trying different combinations on what to use on "host", but ultimately the actual issue was not having the websocket support on the proxy

#

At some point I was also having t his issue in the vocard logs:

 [2025-12-24 22:52:48] [ERROR   ] ipc_client: Error occurred while connecting to dashboard.
... <BUNCH_OF_PYTHON_GARB>
aiohttp.client_exceptions.ConnectionTimeoutError: Connection timeout to host wss://vocard.domain.com:8000/ws_bot

Which only happened when trying to use my domain from vocard settings.json, but idk, for some reason didn't think about actually double checking my websocket support lol

#

leaving that there as well in case it helps someone

wooden pasture Dec 25, 2025, 5:01 AM

#

That is a common issue, but you are correct, I agree.

#

I probably wouldn't be able to help you today, I just remembered that this might be it. Hard to focus on anything since I was working all night.

copper beacon Dec 25, 2025, 5:05 AM

#

yeah, thanks a lot, i'm actually mad at how easy of a fix it was, i spent a lot of time getting all the info for this post lmao

if you have some more time, do you have an idea why no image loads in the dashboard? i see some issues on content from discord, but not sure about the artwork for the songs

#

for some reason this just fails a lot idk

wooden pasture Dec 25, 2025, 5:06 AM

#

I've seen it somewhere

#

I'll try to find more info

copper beacon Dec 25, 2025, 5:06 AM

#

yeah nw, all good

#

thanks a gain!

wooden pasture Dec 25, 2025, 5:08 AM

#

probably this one

#

I'm not sure if there was a solution, though

#

If this doesn’t help, then this is a new type of issue we have little info about. I can help with Docker, networking, and basic vocard related topics. But this stuff is outside my scope, unfortunately.

#

@copper beacon so how did it go for you? Have you managed to fix it?

copper beacon Dec 28, 2025, 8:14 AM

#

I didn't try to fix it, haven't looked into it
