Disconnection is still a issue, it has been for years

[mikkeljohnsen]

I have been trying to get Jitsi up an running now several times during the last couple of years. And it is always the same.

Your connection has been disconnected

I have searched and searched, all say it has something to do with PUBLIC_URL, but it has not. When will there be a fix for this, so people can actually try it.

I have just followed this: https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/devops-guide/devops-guide-docker/

Please paste some console logs. Without logs there is no way to help you.

I got a little bit further now.

Removing from docker-compose.yml under "prosody" the following. Actually made the other containers start (not just the web).

                aliases:
                    - ${XMPP_SERVER:-xmpp.meet.jitsi}

But still the same error.

I can see that it says that JVB_AUTH_PASSWORD is not set. But it is. I have run "gen-passwords.sh" and can see it is set.

Removing that section will create problems, don't.

What version of the images are you running?

Are you using the standard Docker Compose based setup in the repo? Any changes?

[mikkeljohnsen]

I just downloaded the newest version "docker-jitsi-meet-stable-8044", and it is the same.

It stops after starting "web" container. With:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/podman-compose", line 33, in <module>
    sys.exit(load_entry_point('podman-compose==1.0.3', 'console_scripts', 'podman-compose')())

    podman_compose.run()

    cmd(self, args)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/podman_compose.py", line 1247, in wrapped

  File "/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/podman_compose.py", line 1414, in compose_up
    podman_args = container_to_args(compose, cnt, detached=args.detach)

    assert_cnt_nets(compose, cnt)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/podman_compose.py", line 557, in assert_cnt_nets
    net_desc = nets[net] or {}
KeyError: "meet.jitsi={'aliases': ['xmpp.meet.jitsi']}"

but removing

                aliases:
                    - ${XMPP_SERVER:-xmpp.meet.jitsi}

Makes it start all containers

I run on RHEL9 using podman-compose

The currently ONLY pinned issue is about how Podman is NOT supported: #201

That issue has currently been open for 2 years.

podman-compose is not 100% compatible with docker-compose so use it at your own risk, but please do mention it when opening issues, it matters.
