kennysarmy Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 Just getting "There was an error connecting to the server" in the Output pane of Replit. Nothing obvious in the Smoothwall logs. Bypassing Smoothwall it works OK. Following are all in a category which is "Not Inspected" & "Do Not Filter" eval2.janeway.platform.replit.com production-ai-chat.replit.com replit.co replit.com replit.com/~ vscode-cdn.net Must be missing something, but can't work out what :/ Smoothwall ticket opened, but they can take a while so posting here in case anyone has the answer.
jgmitchell Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 We've had a bit of an issue with this. Even going to the extent of opening Inspect element and going through the Console option to find some urls. Some we found were: eval.global.replit.com gp-v2.replit.com sp.replit.com Hope that may help
Chockster Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 I wish I could help but we gave up on this. It was the VNC port 5900 connection in that right hand side frame that was the issue, and after a few weeks of trying our computing department decided to go in another direction.

I'm not seeing anything relating to VNC.
Chockster Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 It was a websocket failure on port 5900, the vnc port, for programs that had a graphical output. Pygame stuff was the main culprit. Websocket connection to '994.81ba10eeeb296091.js:1 WebSocket connection to 'wss://6641250c-c512-48f0-9305-4b77d245c086-00-1vcw7bgv8on82.spock.replit.dev:5900/' failed Some hints about it here - https://ask.replit.com/t/published-python-replit-not-showing-interpreter/29778/16
bknaggs Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 (edited) I got it working yesterday putting a firewall rule in place to allow TCP traffic out on port 5900 but it's stopped working today. Destination is still the same. I haven't tried adding a UDP rule to allow port 5900. I'll try that now. Edited May 23, 2024 by bknaggs UDP not UNC
bknaggs Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 Adding a UDP rule doesn't make a difference. Bringing up the Dev tools in Edge gives me WebSocket connection to 'wss://4b44d6cc-e637-420a-99fb-c9926acbf1d0-00-393cmxdpyvuip.janeway.replit.dev:5900/' failed: This is going through Smoothwall cloud filter in our case and bypassing the local box.
robintech Posted May 23, 2024 Posted May 23, 2024 (edited) Did this a while back but ended up moving to firewalledreplit.com https://docs.replit.com/additional-resources/firewalled-replit and put these in "Do not inspect" *.firewalledreplit.com *.firewalledreplit.co *.cdn.replit.com https://docs.replit.com/legacy/teams-edu/it-administrators-toolkit Edited May 23, 2024 by ittech2342323
kennysarmy Posted May 24, 2024 Author Posted May 24, 2024 Smoothwall first line couldn't help, so waiting for second line to make contact.
tom_newton Posted May 24, 2024 Posted May 24, 2024 Looks like a tough one - I will raise it with our team.
kennysarmy Posted May 24, 2024 Author Posted May 24, 2024 Second line remoted in. Category list amended to: js.stripe.com repl.co replit.co replit.com replit.dev vscode-cdn.net port 5900 is added to web proxy settings > Additional web port settings. Strangely the test Replit was not even connecting for the second line engineer on his own PC, so not sure if we actually fixed anything or if the REPLIT site was having issues which co-incidentally were resolved during our call ! Asked Head of Computing to run more tests. This was test Replit from tkinter import * app = Tk() app.mainloop() The "webview" in a filter test still blocks access to sites students should not be able to access. 1
sigma Posted May 24, 2024 Posted May 24, 2024 Nothing to do with the original problem, but be aware that LOTS of web proxies are hosted on replit.
