Proxmox help

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: latest
  • Database (default: SQLite): SQLite
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): own
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): docker AI starter-kit
  • Operating system: proxmox (ubuntu)

N8N_SECURE_COOKIE to false

So i tried to install the docker n8n AI starter-kit on my proxmox VM and i get an page that prompts me to disable secure cookies or use localhost. i cannot seem to find an option to disable cookies anywhere and localhost isnt an option since its an ubuntu server VM.

i opted for the starter kit after i got fetch error when i ran an ollama n8n node ollama that i selfhost and n8n in a seperate LXC container

PLEASE NOTE: i have very limited knowledge of the whole thing i mostly find solution from existing forums or youtube videos. i cannot seem to find anything on the web relating my issue. Thanks in advance.

Tip for sharing information

Pasting your n8n workflow


Ensure to copy your n8n workflow and paste it in the code block, that is in between the pairs of triple backticks, which also could be achieved by clicking </> (preformatted text) in the editor and pasting in your workflow.

```
<your workflow>
```

That implies to any JSON output you would like to share with us.

Make sure that you have removed any sensitive information from your workflow and include dummy or pinned data with it!


The cookie accesibility is controlled by the environmental variable N8N_SECURE_COOKIE. It is mentioned in Security environment variables | n8n Docs.

If you are using our AI Starter Kit, the environmental variables reside in self-hosted-ai-starter-kit/.env at main · n8n-io/self-hosted-ai-starter-kit · GitHub.

Generally speaking, when deploying n8n via Docker the environmental variables could be engaged as per examples in Docker | n8n Docs.

as im using the ai-starter-kit now i managed to find its .env file but even after adding “SECURE_COOKIE” line the error persists.
