9 months ago Hi @jbonadiman
We've made no changes to faasd recently that would affect the installation or how it works.
faasd is only to be installed in a fresh VM, or a dedicated host.
If you have something else running on your machine then you've already broken the prerequisites, this is explained in the book.
There's currently no issue with faasd and its provider.
The best troubleshooting you could do is to use a completely fresh Ubuntu VM or bare-metal host, and not to install anything else inside of it. After that, there is a detailed chapter in the book on troubleshooting, and we have a weekly call every Wednesday where you're welcome to drop in and talk to us.

Hello! I've followed the examples in the book/website and installed faasd using this command:
faasd started running in :8080 as it should. But when I tried to login using:
I got this error: Calling the OpenFaaS server to validate the credentials... Server returned unexpected status code: 502 -
I checked the
faasd.serviceandfaasd-provider.serviceand understood that something else was listening on port :8081 (I'm guessing the provider), so I used that port to login and it worked. I continued to follow the examples and manage to successfully deploy a function using the CLI. But then, when I tried to see it in the UI (localhost:8080/ui), it wasn't there. I tried to do the opposite and deploy the function using the UI, and I could see the 502 again in the browser. From what I understood, faasd is deployed in two separate components and so they require different ports, but I guess it was supposed to have some sort of redirection? All the examples I see in the website/book uses just one port to access the UI/API/gateway (:8080). I don't know what happened in my installation (tried to uninstall and install again also), but somehow this is not happening. Can someone help me diagnose this and make it work properly?Your Environment
