Hi. I have bit of trouble getting the UI to work as it can't connect to the graphql. It keeps saying "Attempting to connect... http://localhost:4200/graphql/". I have set the host I want to use in my config.toml: ############## config.toml ############## backend = "server" [server] host = "http://srvdocker01" port = "4200" host_port = "4200" endpoint = "${server.host}:${server.port}" [server.ui] host = "http://srvdocker01" port = "8081" host_port = "8081" endpoint = "${server.ui.host}:${server.ui.port}" graphql_url = "http://srvdocker01:4200/graphql" ########################################## This setting is reflected when I run the server (see pic):

Hi Thomas, I’m not sure but I think you may need to update the graphql URL in your config (

[server.graphql.host]

). Right now I think you’ve told the UI to point at your

srvdocker

location for the GraphQL service, but the GraphQL service itself may still be at its default host of

0.0.0.0

. Docker networking can be a bit funny though so I’m not totally sure — if that gives you trouble, I suggest opening a GitHub issue so that we can include this in the improvements we’re working on for Server config!

Hi Jeremiah. Thank you for the quick reply.

srvdocker01

is the name of the machine where I run docker so http://srvdocker01:8081 brings up the UI just fine. It seems like the error is that not matter what I set

graphql_url

in the

[server.ui]

to it doesn't change the address that the the UI is looking at.

Try this env var:

VUE_APP_GRAPHQL_HTTP=<http://srvdocker01:4200/graphql>

Thanks @Ben Davison - Thomas if you open an issue on GitHub, we will look at exposing that more cleanly via config

That didn't help. - thanks though @Ben Davison. I have created a issue https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/issues/2759

Thanks Thomas, we’ll be taking a closer look

Cheers.
