Why can't I open two Syncthing sessions on localhost in the same browser?
|
|
||||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The Syncthing GUI uses browser cookies to maintain a session. Browser cookies
|
|
||||||
are tied to the website domain. When navigating to two different websites on
|
|
||||||
the same domain, such as is the case for two Syncthing instances both
|
|
||||||
listening on ``127.0.0.1``, the cookies will get mixed up.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This means you should for example not browse a local Syncthing instance
|
|
||||||
(typically localhost:8384) and a remote Syncthing instance (e.g.
|
|
||||||
localhost:9090 via an SSH forward) at the same time. Doing so results in
|
|
||||||
partial functionality or in an error message such as *Syncthing seems to be
|
|
||||||
experiencing a problem processing your request* when saving settings.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There are a few workarounds:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Use two separate browsers.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Use the same browser, but one window in "incognito" or private mode.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Use "reload" on the page prior to making changes, to ensure that the browser
|
|
||||||
has cookies from that instance specifically.
