I remember why I chose to use 8443. It is because the xo-user running the service isn't running with root privileges. So doing it with an ordinary user was way more difficult to setup than just use 8443.

But...
Switching over so that service-user runs as root. 443 becomes possible. And things work again as expected. However, I really did like not running xo-server as root.

@probain I will prepare a branch for a potential fix, so you can still use the 8443 port

Absolutely fantastic. I will test it as soon as possible to help out however I can.

Cheers!

Maybe this has something to do with the script i used to install xo but i can not get v6 to be the default. The links going from v6 to v5 work but just defaults to v5 and accessing. i use port 443 for xo and i do use a proxy.

from the config.toml file

[http.mounts]
164 # Uncomment to setup a default version.
165 # Otherwise, XO5 will be the default for stable channel and XO6 for latest and source
166 # '/' = '../xo-web/dist/'
167 
168 '/' = '../xo-web/dist/'
169 '/v6' = '../../@xen-orchestra/web/dist/'
170 
171 [http.proxies]
172 # [port] is used to reuse the same port declared in [http.listen.0]
173 '/v5/api' = '[protocol]//localhost:[port]/api'
174 '/v5/api/updater' = 'ws://localhost:9001'
175 '/v5/rest' = 'http://localhost:[port]/rest'

this config breaks everything. Nothing works.

[http.mounts]
164 # Uncomment to setup a default version.
165 # Otherwise, XO5 will be the default for stable channel and XO6 for latest and source
166 # '/' = '../xo-web/dist/'
167 
168 '/v6' = '../xo-web/dist/'
169 '/' = '../../@xen-orchestra/web/dist/'
170 
171 [http.proxies]
172 # [port] is used to reuse the same port declared in [http.listen.0]
173 '/v5/api' = '[protocol]//localhost:[port]/api'
174 '/v5/api/updater' = 'ws://localhost:9001'
175 '/v5/rest' = 'http://localhost:[port]/rest'

Original config

[http.mounts]
164 # Uncomment to setup a default version.
165 # Otherwise, XO5 will be the default for stable channel and XO6 for latest and source
166 # '/' = '../xo-web/dist/'
167 
168 '/v5' = '../xo-web/dist/'
169 '/v6' = '../../@xen-orchestra/web/dist/'
170 
171 [http.proxies]
172 # [port] is used to reuse the same port declared in [http.listen.0]
173 '/v5/api' = '[protocol]//localhost:[port]/api'
174 '/v5/api/updater' = 'ws://localhost:9001'
175 '/v5/rest' = 'http://localhost:[port]/rest'

@probain Thanks for your test

@acebmxer Can you try with the original config please?

[MathieuRA]

@acebmxer
The first configuration file you show exposes XO5 by default and exposes XO6 on the v6 endpoint
The second configuration file doesn't work because you expose XO5 on the v6 endpoint, but your proxies still point to v5 (changing your proxies to /v6/api, /v6/api/updater and /v6/rest should work, but it seems weird to expose XO5 on a v6 endpoint)
The original config exposes XO5 on v5, XO6 on v6 and /

Yeah i dont understand why this is not working or why it is working the way it is.

With this config below. Still defaults to v5 but links going to v6 and back to v5 work but defaults to v5. I do get a different login screen. I have also tried accessing via ip versus via proxy, same difference. I have tried to reach out to the creator of the script but waiting for their reply back.

@acebmxer
Just update your config as bellow

[http.mounts]
164 # Uncomment to setup a default version.
165 # Otherwise, XO5 will be the default for stable channel and XO6 for latest and source
166 # '/' = '../xo-web/dist/'
167 
168 '/v5' = '../xo-web/dist/'  
169 '/' = '../../@xen-orchestra/web/dist/'
170 
171 [http.proxies]
172 # [port] is used to reuse the same port declared in [http.listen.0]
173 '/v5/api' = '[protocol]//localhost:[port]/api'
174 '/v5/api/updater' = 'ws://localhost:9001'
175 '/v5/rest' = 'http://localhost:[port]/rest'
