Cannot get it to connect to server

Browser: Mainly Firefox though tried on edge Headscale: To be honest not sure as I used the tag Latest (As of today 6/23/2023)

I installed Headscale via docker using the following command: docker run \ --name headscale \ --detach \ --volume ./config:/etc/headscale/ \ --publish 0.0.0.0:8180:8080 \ --publish 0.0.0.0:9191:9090 \ --network DockerNetwork \ headscale/headscale:latest \ headscale serve

I tested it via the curl command, created a user successfully and no issues there result for curl http://127.0.0.1:9191/metrics : '# HELP go_gc_duration_seconds A summary of the pause duration of garbage collection cycles.

It loads but cannot connect to server I did generate API key via the command

docker exec headscale headscale apikeys create

What can I do to make it work? What am I missing?

Note In the areas where I pasted the code I added ['] to preserve the line and not using ['#] as a formatting indicator

headscale ui is not tested using IPs, different ports, or http. I strongly suggest setting it up properly using a reverse proxy and re test. As per the documentation:

HS-UI has to be ran on the same subdomain or you need to configure CORS. Yes you need to use a reverse proxy to do this. Use a reverse proxy.

Sorry Seems I sent the screenshot from an older attempt before I read about that I did try and posted after fiddling with nginx proxy manager

But I figured it out I mixed up the location of the port meant in the pat added in the advanced and the original IP it was directing to In other words I swapt them out foolish me

Thank you for your help

closing as solved
