Spacedesk stopped connecting

[meatreach]

Today I tried to connect to spacedesk on the local computer but it didn’t work. It worked before, for a long time, but now I can’t make it connect.

Windows 11, connecting from a browser client (just waits for some time and turns the page red: Could not connect. Connection Timeout. Make sure your Server-IP is correct) and from spacedesk VIEWER (Cannot detect Server!)

Updated the driver from the spacedesk console.
Restarted the computer.
Double-checked the IP address in the web client and the console.
Checked Windows Firewall exceptions; both spacedesk and spacedesk service are enabled.

What else could be wrong?

Ran the diagnostics, logs are attached as described in console.

Pls help!

Hi @meatreach,

please clear the browser’s cache or run the HTML5 viewer on a different browser.

Seems to be a configuration error on the server hosting the viewer app. In the browser console, there’s an error during connection:

Refused to connect to ‘ws://192.168.1.204:28252/’ because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: “default-src ‘self’ ‘unsafe-inline’ https:”. Note that ‘connect-src’ was not explicitly set, so ‘default-src’ is used as a fallback

Happens in different browsers all the same.

Dirty workaround is to save the viewer page to the local hard drive and load it from there. Incorrect CSP is not applied then, and it works, although with some minor glitches.
