📝 Provide a clear and concise description of the issue.
After creating the container the webinterface can't be reached.
Changing the onboarding url in /etc/conf.d/zigbee2mqtt to 0.0.0.0 makes the onboarding reachable and can be configured. However even after waiting several minutes or restarting the container it still only redirects to the onboarding. This might be an issue with Z2M itself but the original issue, that the webinterface can't be reached initially seems to be a configuration issue with the default installation?
I managed to reach it randomly two times but it always claimed there is an error in configuration.yaml although I use the default one or one generated by https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/guide/configuration/
🔄 Steps to reproduce the issue.
-
Run script
-
http://nodes_ip_adress:8080 no connection
-
Change the onboarding url in /etc/conf.d/zigbee2mqtt to 0.0.0.0
-
Restart node
-
Onboarding can be reached at http://nodes_ip_adress:8080 and Z2M configured.
-
Wait and/or restart node.
-
Still no frontend/webinterface
-
remove onboarding url in /etc/conf.d/zigbee2mqtt
-
http://nodes_ip_adress:8080 no connection
