Error viewing Bisq in the browser: "handler exception: 401 None" #2

Hello,

I'm trying to get bisq-docker running on my single-board computer, and I'm running into the following issue.

I can get the docker containers to run; however, when I try to open the app in my browser, I got the following prompt for my username and password repeatedly:

Authentication Required

http://<ip-where-bisq-docker-is-running>:8080 is requesting your username and password. The site says: “Websockify”

No matter how many times I enter the username / password defined in the .env file the prompt keeps popping up, and Bisq won't load.

I added a logfile for websockify, and every time I try to open up Bisq in the browser, I see the following log:

handler exception: 401 None

I don't see any errors in the bisq app log file, so my guess is there's some issue with the connection to Bisq. For reference, I get the same issue when I try to open bisq with Tor Browser and the onion address. I don't have any prior experience with either websockify or noVNC so any help debugging this would be greatly appreciated!

Something might be wrong with the permissions. You can try to docker exec into the container and check env to see if it was set correctly.

It worked! The USERNAME environment variable passed inline in docker-compose.yml wasn't overriding the root username that ended up being required to authenticate with websockify.
