This happens when you joining a room or in the admin section where you specify the connection details?

yes, but also the issue is that i’m getting Error: Cannot connect to server when try to connect my server in talk settings

Okay, so the error when joining a room is expected when the connection to the HPB fails. So that needs to work first (in the admin settings). Looks like the HPB is either not running or a connection between your nextcloud server and your HPB server. I’m not quite sure if there’s a separate error when the secret does not match, so please double check the secret is correct.

this is the error i get
Error: Cannot connect to server
and yes i double check the secret

I’m using reverse proxy and it on the same server as nextcloud, any idea what could be the issue?

How to test if spreed-signaling is working?, anyone can help!

please try the search:

The solution was to setup a certificate which then enables https, which I already did.
How to test if the spreed-signaling working or not so that I can exclude the apache reverse proxy effect.

i am having the same problem…
here is a log can you rell me how to fix this …

That’s what I quickly found, you want to check your version. Other than that, without more information, there’s no way to help.
