SSL Configuration Issue

Users may encounter an error stating “Client sent an HTTP request to an HTTPS server” when trying to access the Gokapi pod after initial setup. This issue arises from an SSL configuration conflict.

Solution

To properly set up Gokapi on PikaPods and avoid SSL conflicts:

  1. Initial Setup:

    • Navigate to your Gokapi pod’s setup page by visiting <your-pod-url>/setup.
    • Follow the setup instructions, keeping most settings at their default values.
    • Important: Do not enable the HTTPS setting. Ensure it is kept disabled since SSL is already handled by PikaPods.
  2. Post-Setup Access:

    • After completing the setup, you might be redirected to an incorrect URL due to the SSL settings.
    • Instead, manually navigate to <your-pod-url>/login to log in with the admin credentials you created during setup.
