Describe the problem/error/question
I’ve setup n8n with npm, using websocket push backend and user management.
As I’m logged in on one of my used browsers, I can access and use n8n.
But if I open n8n in a new private tab, I only see the red loading spinner when I would expect the login screen.
The network logof the browser says, that while accessing /rest/login n8n responded with
{
"code": 401,
"message": "Not logged in"
}
My nginx reverse proxy configuration looks like this:
location /webhook/ {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5678;
proxy_set_header Connection '';
proxy_http_version 1.1;
chunked_transfer_encoding off;
proxy_buffering off;
proxy_cache off;
}
location /rest {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5678;
proxy_ssl_verify off;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection 'Upgrade';
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_ssl_server_name on;
}
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5678;
proxy_set_header Connection '';
proxy_http_version 1.1;
chunked_transfer_encoding off;
proxy_buffering off;
proxy_cache off;
}
My n8n systemd service unit looks like this:
