Webserver started but page only containing '{}' [Website]

[anoo2niem]

Hi,

First of al, i'm a noob, so forgive me please if this issue is stupid :)

I've never done osint, but came across this tool, and wanted to try it, as it would be a nice addition to my proxmox server.

I created a new lxc container (debian 12) , installed golang (go version go1.20.6 linux/amd64).

I've followed the instructions provided to get seekr running (unstable).

wget 'path' > cd seekr > go run main.go

I've got 2 errors, first one was that ~/.config/seekr/config.toml file could not be found, and second some xdg-open error. I've looked here in the issues and i could find an example of the config.toml file.

I manually placed it there [server] ip = "0.0.0.0" port = 8080 [general] browser = true

I installed xdg-utils aswell.

Ran again and both errors gone, webserver starting but the output of the website is just '{}'.

I've pulled 0.3.6.tar.gz aswell and tried it this way, but same issue; webserver running, output '{}'

I guess the fact that i had to create the config.toml file myself, is part of where the issue is...

Any help to set this up properly would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hey! You have done basically everything right. You just have to add /web at the end of the URL 👍

Without the /web it just shows the raw content of your database.

If that isnt the issue, we will look into it. Also we will try to fix the config.toml stuff.

Hey,

Thanks! The webinterface is loading now by using /web at the end of the url.

However, not fully functional. There are some .js files not loading (404)

After further inspection, it seems the /web/dist directory is non existent on my machine.

Edit: in code brackets it was sloppy

I think you need to compile TypeScript and run some go command. @9glenda should be able to help

Maybe this works:

go generate ./...

tsc --project web

I will later update the wiki to include more details about setting it up

[anoo2niem]

Hey,

After additionally installing TypeScript, and running both commands, everything is working now.

Thanks again!

Have a great day

[cn1t]

Awesome! Just open another issue if you encounter any additional problems

[9glenda]

Very well explained! Good issue @anoo2niem thanks

[9glenda]

@anoo2niem we now changed the site to redirect to /web instead of showing {}.
