Prefect Community

Hi, While playing around with the server UI, I clicked on the cloud option in the top right corner. Now if I try to navigate to <http://localhost:8080/default> it automatically redirects me to <https://universal.prefect.io/>. I tried restarting chrome and get the same behavior. Any idea how to stop this? Thanks!

Try going to <http://localhost:8080/home|http://localhost:8080/home> and reset the URL?

Going to localhost:8080 without a specific endpoint auto redirects as well. Seems like a bug to me?

Yep! I had this problem too - delete cookies associated to localhost

Hi <@U01MZ51TG85> we have a ticket open to improve the behavior here. In the meantime, if you navigate to your server instance and open the developer console (Cmd + option + i on Mac, Ctrl + shift + j on Windows), you should be able to reset this by typing localStorage.setItem('backend', 'SERVER'). Or you can delete local storage as Josh Greenhalgh suggests.

Hi <@ULXMV9SD7>,  Do I type that in the javascript console?

I tried both localStorage and sessionStorage but still get the same behavior

Clearing all browsing data for the last 24 hours helped

<@U01K9JXEQAJ> <@ULXMV9SD7> thanks for your help

Thanks <@U01MZ51TG85> - I'll advise to clear browsing data in future!  (And noted - I'll add your comments here to the ticket.)

lol I had to do a double take b/c this was my experience as well, almost word for word. I followed the advice here and managed to solve it :+1:

Personnaly I am still redirected. That's very annoying.

<@U01CAHY9CAE> , I also still have the same problem . I have tried 3 browsers, incognito , clearing all cookies , restarting the my PC many times - but still could not reach the UI.

Hi <@U01SJ9HFNUF> - what UI image are you using? If you can reset to the 2021-04-15 image it should resolve.

Thank <@ULXMV9SD7>, I am having 2021.04.27 but localStorage.setItem('backend', 'SERVER'). solved my problem. I was waiting for a positive response in the prompt but tried refresh evern after I saw &lt;undefined and it worked.

Glad you got it working again! Thanks for the update.
