Can't get TURN server to work

[linuxdude314]

I somewhat miraculously figured this out…

After almost giving up, I decided to look at the script provided in github:

https://github.com/nextcloud/vm/blob/master/apps/talk.sh

This config provided by the script contained one line different than any recommendations I’ve seen on this forum:

lt-cred-mech

This guide specifically mentions it can’t be enabled when use-auth-secret is also enabled, but in my case, it only works with both config options set.

HowTo: Setup Nextcloud Talk with TURN server

Background The configuration of Nextcloud Talk mainly depends on your desired usage: As long as it shall be used only within one local network, nothing should be needed at all. Just verify that all browsers support the underlying WebRTC protocol (all famous ones do on current versions) and you should be good to go. Talk tries to establish a direct peer-to-peer (P2P) connection, thus on connections throughout the local network (behind a NAT/router), clients do not only need to know each other…

Cheers!
