document how to access webui

[valentt]

Hi, thanks for great docker znc image.
I see documentation mentioning webui but there is no explanation how to access webui once docker is running. Can you please explain that in documentation readme. Thanks.

I have the same problem! Only the 32772 port is being forwarded by default and I can find no hint whatsoever as to where the web interface is listening...

Hi, yes you can! :) Just type https://your_ip:32772/ znc will know that
you are using https and will make the proper redirect

I realized Safari and Chrome can't open the page for some reason but
Firefox can, on OS X — could that be mentioend?

Like @lorn, said, ZNC by default uses the same port both for IRC and HTTP. Apologies for the confusion. I've added more detailed info about how to access the web-interface in 172bcb6.

If you guys are happy with it, I'll close this issue :)

If you could only add that some browsers might not be able to connect to it (it's probably not fully standard HTTP protocol)? otherwise people might just assume the container is misconfigured and isn't letting HTTP connections through, because it's hardly ever the case that a standard browser cannot access a working HTTP service.

@eallik Are you sure there's no proxy config or something that's preventing Chrome and Safari from accessing the webui for you? Maybe try all three browsers from a different machine? I've never had any issue with any browser on desktop or phones. ZNC should be acting like a 100% normal HTTP server.

As far as I understand it, ZNC decides on a per connection basis if the connection should be treated as HTTP or IRC based on the first request received from the client.

My Safari and Chrome have no proxies configured... it's all standard
vanilla stuff.

@jimeh, there are some ports that chrome/safari will refuse to connect to. for example ports 6667/6697.
Can you try exposing znc on port 80/8080, and see if that helps?

How can I disable the web ui ? so far people can tweak there chrome to access the UI by http.

[moredhel]

Hi kopax, you should probably be opening another issue for this. You can look at the following pages that should resolve your issues:
Webadmin Module
Enabling/Disabling Modules

[moredhel]

To anyone else who experiences the original issue, there is a fix described in the FAQ.
