can't access code-server on AWS

[wernervandergeest]

Hi, I'm unable to access my code-server on AWS; opened http port on the VM and in AWS security rule, I'm struggling to troubleshoot this one, the code-server and coder-redirecter are running, can you give me some tips here?

I'm seeing something similar. The logs show:

The HTTP server sends this to my browser

An internal server error occurred

If you would like to talk to a developer, drop a message in our slack channel with the following id 6169abef-90615475cc47f13a3a27098b

But the slack channel requires sign-in, and I don't have an account with it.

Hi - sorry for the late response, I have not been active on this project.

Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee reliability with our --link service anymore. I have added a note to our VM guide to specify this. For now, we'd recommend using our guide to configure Caddy/LetsEncrypt on code-server: https://coder.com/docs/code-server/latest/guide#using-lets-encrypt-with-caddy
