Connection error in the GUI every 60 secs

[dekopolis]

Hello there...

Problem Description:

I'm getting a connection error pop-up (that almost immediately disappears) every 60 secs in the Syncthing GUI. Everything is otherwise working fine. I did a simple install from the plugins page. Mount points working just fine as well as syncing.

If I keep the GUI page open, every 60 secs I get this message that quickly goes away.

Notes:

• I deleted the plugin/jail and reinstalled, both times with the same behavior.
• I'm on my desktop which is hardwired to the Truenas server over gigabit Ethernet.
• Constant ping does not show any drops at any time.
• Here is the same problem reported but with a 30 sec interval several years on the Syncthing Git.
  • The issue there was a HAProxy having a different timeout than the "long polling" that Syncthing uses.
  • I'm not using a proxy and I'm internal on my network connecting directly to the GUI on my new Trunas box.
  • I wonder if this is a similar issue. Something to do with the Jail and something timing out inside it. Maybe something to do with nginx or a Jail setting itself??
• Firefox Javascript Console shows a UIOffline immediately followed by a UIOnline.
  
  

System & Plugin Information:

nginx/1.18.0

Update: The workaround for this is to not install syncthing as a plugin, but rather create a Jail and install Syncthing manually. This video from Lawrence helped me learn how to do this: https://youtu.be/3MKUPJek2Gw

No connection errors on the Gui when installed this way.
