Invalid session in Android Webview

NodeBB Plugins
  • I'm creating an app by following this topic
    Re: NodeBB Android App using this project https://github.com/ReyKoxha/nodebb-webview/

    I did the test with https://community.nodebb.org/ and I had no problem, but with my forum I had this problem, and in login it gives a forbidden error.
    In the browser works normally, only in Webview causes this error in any action I do.

    Need to enable something on the server to work correctly through webview?

  • @Braulio-Cesar-Holtz-Ribeiro the error does not occur with a normal browser?

  • No, Chrome (Android) works normally, no error message and login works normally.
    Testing on the same device.

  • Please share your NGINX config. I am still using the webview app (even though I got a slightly improved version) and it still works flawlessly.
    I see no reason why it is the webview app's fold as I have not included any hooks to interfere with the actual website.

  • My config

    server {
    listen 80;

    server_name 52.41.178.169;
    
    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
    
        proxy_pass http://52.41.178.169:4567/;
        proxy_redirect off;
    
        # Socket.IO Support
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    }
    

    }

    Is this setting or another? Strange that for the Chrome browser works well and in Webview the same app does not work properly.

  • I decided to update the forum, I am in version 1.0.3, I run the ./nodebb upgrade --upgrade v1.1.0 command but nothing happens, I am doing for versions for testing compatibility.

    OK

                            NodeBB Upgrade Complete!
    

    I tried restarting and reloading the forum, but it continues in the old version, I had created a separate instance (AWS), and I thought it might be some mistake confusing the old connection, but I did the same command in the official installation but it does not update .

  • @Braulio-Ribeiro that's not how upgrades are done. Try

    git fetch
    git checkout v1.1.0
    ./nodebb upgrade

    You are running NodeBB v1.0.3.
    A new version (v1.4.2) has been released. Consider upgrading your NodeBB.

    I also restarted to see if anything changed, but nothing
    The log is not complete because Akismet blocks

  • @Braulio-Cesar-Holtz-Ribeiro try running npm ls nodebb | grep nodebb@ and tell me what that outputs

  • [email protected] /opt/bitnami/nginx/html/NodeBB
    npm ERR! code 1
    

    I tried to npm clean cache but displays the same error


    I ran the command "npm install -g [email protected]" and now displayed "[email protected] /opt/bitnami/nginx/html/NodeBB"

    Running the NodeBB update again

  • @Braulio-Cesar-Holtz-Ribeiro you have NodeBB v1.1.0 installed, so obviously it is something else that's the problem.

  • I was doing this on the test server, Nginx was with the original IP, I switched to the IP of the test server and now it has "502 Bad Gateway" error, as the problem is another one (not NodeBB), I will search for solution through the Internet.

  • I managed to do the update, after correcting the nginx .conf for the test IP, I did not start the application, causing the Bad Gateway error.
    The forum works with Webview from version 1.1

    Thank you for your help
