Describe the problem/error/question

Everything working good in version 1.2.1
But I change docker image 1.6.1 I get error connection lost. I suppose I need to change something to the configuration. Any link or suggestions are appreciated. Thx

What is the error message (if any)?

Connection lost
Problem running workflow: lost connection to the server

Please share your workflow

n8n in a docker in swarm configuration, behind treafik reverse proxy. WEBHOOK_URL is set

(Select the nodes on your canvas and use the keyboard shortcuts CMD+C/CTRL+C and CMD+V/CTRL+V to copy and paste the workflow.)

Share the output returned by the last node

Hi @Kumanatsu :wave: Welcome to the community :cake:

@Jon might be a better help on this one, but could you post your Docker compose file (with anything sensitive redacted)? That way we can look at your configuration a little more closely :+1:

Also just a thought, but have you exposed the following ports in your Docker compose file?

- "80:80"
- "443:443"

thanks for the fast reply, this is the working file for that i use in version 1.2.1 but doesn’t work with version 1.6.1

Hey @Kumanatsu,

It sounds like it could be a websockets issue but I would expect to see that on 1.2.1 as well :thinking: As a test could you set N8N_PUSH_BACKEND to sse and let me know if that helps?
