Here is my apache config.

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ProxyPreserveHost On
        ServerName 192.168.0.59 # private ip, just for testing purposes   
        ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8000
        ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8000
        DocumentRoot /home/marius/.julia/dev/GenieApp
</VirtualHost>

So when I run the GenieApp stand-alone, everything works nicely and this is what I get: But when I access the app via apache2 this is what I get: . So it works, but without the styling. How can I fix this?

Changed the channel name: Works behind Apache2, but no styling

I have found a goodish documentation on this and managed to make it work:

This is the doc: https://genieframework.github.io/Genie.jl/dev/tutorials/92--Deploying_Genie_Server_Apps_with_Nginx.html

the css, images and js made only after I did the modifications above, like: location /css/genie { proxy_pass http://localhost:8000/css/genie; }

@Pere , @essenciary am I correct with the updated locations for css, img and js? if so, the documentation shall be changed as well

... and obviously this old section with deploying behind nginx shall be part of the new documentation: https://learn.genieframework.com/docs/guides/deploying-genie-apps

I spend quite a few hours playing with apache2 and nginx. This was my lifesaver page: https://discourse.julialang.org/t/hello-ive-built-a-web-app-using-genie-stipple-and-i-would-like-to-deploy-it-to/54459/5

Another issue: I have set the wrong root in the config above. But even if I set it correctly: root /home/marius/.julia/dev/MyGenieApp/public;, the behavior is the same. I still have to set the /css/genie proxies as above.

I have found the css, img and js setting useless. The following config is sufficient:

Those settings are only needed when you want to serve static assets with NGINX, so your config is sufficient.

That old guide you found...we actually have an updated version on the current site https://learn.genieframework.com/docs/reference/workflow/nginx-reverse-proxy

but I see that it's not easy to find. I'll link to it from the deployment guide. I'm sorry that you had so much trouble @marius.drulea 🥹

ok... that old guide only works for the old Genie style;

I have tried to use it for thew new stuff('@page(...), ui(), GenieFramework) and it dit not work for me

I have opened an issue for it: https://github.com/GenieFramework/Genie.jl/issues/700

does this work for you?

I've tried having Genie apps behind a Traefik reverse proxy and it worked fine, but haven't tested NGINX. It seems we'll have to look into how it handles websockets, thanks for reporting.

I would say it's worth adding the Traefik config to the doc, beside the nginx config. Same for Apache2.

The issue has to do with websocket config. It turns out someone else had run into this

I updated the issue on Github too
