Can someon help me setup Nextcloud signaling server behind an univention server. My Univention server would be the public facing webserver. I set up may signaling server hopefully fine.
BUT I can’t figure out the virtualhost on univention.
My config currently is:
<VirtualHost *:443>
# ... existing configuration ...
# Enable proxying Websocket requests to the standalone signaling server.
ProxyPass "/standalone-signaling/" "ws://192.168.1.71:8080/"
RewriteEngine On
# Websocket connections from the clients.
RewriteRule ^/standalone-signaling/spreed$ - [L]
# Backend connections from Nextcloud.
RewriteRule ^/standalone-signaling/api/(.*) http://192.168.1.71:8080/api/$1 [L,P]
# ... existing configuration ...
But I only get an 404 error. (I already enabled the site)
After some trys I managed to get a 503 error as well. If I put the internal ip of the HPB it works great.
Thank you for replying to my issue, I’m very grateful. Right now I’m only getting a “Connection refused”, but I’m sure nextcloud accepted the internal url before. So I must have messed up something along the way. Give me some time I’m gonna restore the HPB to a correctly working state.
Even if I do this in the VM I installed the signaling, I get this:
curl -i http://192.168.1.72:8080/api/v1/welcome
curl: (7) Failed to connect to 192.168.1.72 port 8080: Connection refused
I’ve moved away from my family an entire continent and I was planning to use Talk for keeping in touch with them. But Talk is so incredibly flaky I had to do the HPB setup all over again.
I managed to install and sort of setup the services (signaling, nat, janus, turn).
In nextcloud’s settings I can set up the high performance backend and it will say okay, but when I open the Talk app it either says it couldnt connect or that somethings wrong with my signaling server.
Since I followed this tutorial: How to Install Nextcloud Talk High Performance Backend with Stun/Turnserver on Ubuntu – Markus’ Blog (markus-blog.de)
And everything seems to be green on the server, I highly suspect my tries for the proxy, since I’m planing to run the signaling behind my web facing web server.
So far I tried theese reverse prox configs, without any luck.
Some help would be greatly appreciated,s ince if I can’t figure this out, I will have to abandon Talk, thank you!!!

Hey!
So I guess I managed to get the farthest with this:
But it says:
“Failed to establish signaling connection. Something might be wrong in the signaling server configuration”
Is it still possible that my proxy isnt set up properly? Or its great and I screwed up something during the setup? I can curl the signaling service from anywhere!

it seems like I finally figured it out! So actually the last config for proxying works. The problem was that I’m using a couple of CNAMEs for my nextcloud server. YOU HAVE TO FILL IT OUT IN THE SIGNALING CONFIG WITH YOUR CNAMEs as well. I didn’t figured it out yet how to use it from different CNAME’s at the same time, butI guess that something I can live with. Thanks!
