Error when trying to connect (Host violates local access rules)

hey.

i did set up onlyoffice docker, the website says "
Thank you for choosing ONLYOFFICE!
Document Server is running"

its a completly different URL, not like ā€œdocument.mycloud.comā€. When i go to settings, then i type my url, it says: Error when trying to connect (Host violates local access rules)

It uses HTTPS with nginx proxy lets encrypt. both are using it. What do i have to do ?

i added
ā€˜allow_local_remote_serversā€™ => true,

now i get
Error when trying to connect (cURL error 7: Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1 port 8888: Connection refused (see libcurl - Error Codes))

the docker runs -p 127.0.0.1:8888:80 my conf.d/docserver.conf is reverse proxying 127.0.0.1:8888 with TLS 1.3, my nextcloud uses tls 1.2 if that might be importantā€¦

Iā€™ve got the same error on 2 or 3 NC instances, all also running Docker Compose and OnlyOffice running on the same server (accessing it via /ds-vpath/ on http://onlyoffice-document-server) and an nginx reverse proxy (terminating https)ā€¦ I also have 'allow_local_remote_servers'=>true but Iā€™m also getting the ā€œHost violates local access rulesā€ error.

On one server, it seems (inexplicably) to allow access to OnlyOffice. Iā€™m trying to work out whatā€™s different between them.

I note also that on all 3 NC instances, I get a series of ā€œblockedā€ requests for each page load, involving a bunch of js files like main.js, notifications.js, client.js, etc. apparently due to CSP (Content Security Policy). Oddly, this doesnā€™t seem to be completely breaking things (at least not on the instance where OO is accessible)ā€¦

Will report back if I get to the bottom of it.

I still have no new info about that, i am currently using Collabora/code docker image with Apache and Nginx Reverse Proxy to because i dont like the letsencryypt companion ssl configurations. Works good there.

Same problem here. Got Error when trying to connect (Host violates local access rules) and after setting 'allow_local_remote_servers'=>true I get Error when trying to connect (cURL error 7: Failed to connect to documentserver port 443: Connection refused (see https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html) for https://documentserver/healthcheck)

Hereā€™s my config

    restart: "unless-stopped"

  documentserver:
    image: onlyoffice/documentserver
    volumes:
      - './logs:/var/log/onlyoffice'
      - './data:/var/www/onlyoffice/Data'
    expose:
      - '80'
      - '443'

networks:
  proxy_net:
    external: true
  default:

On the webinterface I set https://documentserver/ as the Onlyoffice address

Got it. In the default setup the documentserver doesnā€™t listen for https requests. You have to setup a certificate which then enables https on the documentserver. You can see how to do it in the Readme Docker Hub

Edit: Forget all that. Use the Community Document Server App instead. https://nextcloud.com/blog/how-to-install-onlyoffice-in-nextcloud-hub-and-new-integration-feature/
