Unable to add additional servers, "Cannot connect to the server: Error: Server is unreachable" #1145

GNS3 Server:
- Version: 2.2.21
- Operating System: Pop-OS 20.10 (Ubuntu derivative) Kernel: 5.11.0-7614-generic
- Additional Operating Systems affected: Ubuntu Server 20.04 LTS Kernel: 5.4.0-73-generic
Client OS: Pop-OS 20.10

When attempting to add additional servers, receiving error of "Cannot connect to the server: Error: Server is unreachable". The remote server IS running, and I can access it via it's own Web-UI.

Servers widget displays server 2, but not shown in "Servers" page.

I think the display of server 2 in the servers page after adding via desktop UI is a separate issue.

Greetings everyone. I'm working with the GNS3 Web UI 2.2.34dev version, running npx, and I encounter the same problem when I declare the server IP through the npx http-server command. Using localhost I can add servers, but when I declare the IP address of the Web UI, to access through other clients, I am unable to add servers. Do we have any solution?

is there any update on this issue? any workaround?

From what I've checked the latest version still doesn't offer a solution to the problem. To resolve this, I compiled the web ui on an external server and replaced the respective /dist directory with the /web-ui directory of the GNS3 VM. This solved it for me, because I modified the Web UI interface and I can access it through the IP address of the GNS3 VM, without having to add a remote server, as this uses the local server.
