The service is running and reachable. The issue is the URL format.

The problem: Browsers require a protocol prefix. Use http://nexus:8888 instead of nexus:8888.

Solution: In your browser, use:

  • http://nexus:8888 (not just nexus:8888)

The service is working — the test returned HTTP 200 OK. The Flamenco manager web interface is accessible at http://nexus:8888.

Why this happens:

  • ping nexus works because ping uses ICMP, not HTTP
  • nexus:8888 in a browser is invalid without a protocol
  • http://nexus:8888 tells the browser to use HTTP on port 8888

If it still doesn't work in your browser, try:

  • http://10.1.10.3:8888 (using the IP directly)
  • Check if your browser is blocking the connection or if there's a proxy interfering

User

http://nexus:8888 doesn't work. and for some reason, it tries to connect with https, even when I specify http.

The server responds with HTTP (307 redirect to /app/), not HTTPS. The browser is likely forcing HTTPS. Checking the full response and HSTS headers:

Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "http://nexus:8888/app/" -UseBasicParsing -MaximumRedirection 0 -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Select-Object StatusCode, Headers



The server responds over HTTP. The browser is forcing HTTPS, likely due to cached HSTS or security settings. Try these:

Solution 1: Clear HSTS for nexus

  • Chrome/Edge: chrome://net-internals/#hsts
    • In "Delete domain security policies", enter nexus and click Delete
    • Or enter nexus:8888 if that doesn't work
  • Firefox: Clear site data for nexus:8888 or reset HSTS

Solution 2: Use the IP address

  • Use http://10.1.10.3:8888 instead of http://nexus:8888 (HSTS is domain-based)

Solution 3: Use an incognito/private window

  • Open an incognito/private window and try http://nexus:8888

Solution 4: Use a different browser or clear all site data

  • Try a different browser, or clear all browsing data for the site

Solution 5: Access via PowerShell (to verify it works)


Tool use: **run_terminal_command_v2** • Run command: Start-Process "http://10.1.10.3:8888"
Start-Process "http://10.1.10.3:8888"

Opened http://10.1.10.3:8888 in your browser. This should work since HSTS is domain-based and won't affect the IP.

Quick fix: Use http://10.1.10.3:8888 instead of http://nexus:8888.

To fix the hostname issue permanently:

  1. Open chrome://net-internals/#hsts (or edge://net-internals/#hsts in Edge)
  2. Scroll to "Delete domain security policies"
  3. Enter nexus and click "Delete"
  4. Try http://nexus:8888 again

The server is working; the browser is forcing HTTPS due to cached security settings. Using the IP address bypasses this.

Chrome is defaulting to HTTPS when you enter nexus:8888 without a protocol. You need to include http:// in the URL.

Try this:

  1. In the address bar, type: http://nexus:8888 (include http://)
  2. Or use the IP: http://10.1.10.3:8888

Chrome treats URLs without a protocol as HTTPS, which is why you see the SSL error.

Verifying the correct URL format:


Tool use: **run_terminal_command_v2** • Run command: Start-Process "http://nexus:8888"
Start-Process "http://nexus:8888"

Opened http://nexus:8888 in your browser. It should load correctly.

The key issue: When you type nexus:8888 without http://, Chrome defaults to HTTPS. You must include http:// to force HTTP.

To access the Flamenco manager:

  • Type: http://nexus:8888 (with http://)
  • Or: http://10.1.10.3:8888 (using the IP)

If it still redirects to HTTPS after typing http://, clear HSTS for nexus:

  1. Go to chrome://net-internals/#hsts
  2. In "Delete domain security policies", enter nexus and click Delete
  3. Try http://nexus:8888 again

The server is working; the issue is Chromes protocol handling.

The server responds over HTTP. Chrome likely has HSTS cached for nexus. Clearing it:


Tool use: **run_terminal_command_v2** • Run command: Start-Process "chrome://net-internals/#hsts"
Start-Process "chrome://net-internals/#hsts"

Opened Chrome's HSTS settings. Do this:

  1. In the "Delete domain security policies" section:

    • Enter: nexus
    • Click "Delete"
    • If that doesn't work, also try: nexus:8888
  2. Close all Chrome windows and reopen, then try http://nexus:8888 again.

Alternative (works immediately): Use the IP address instead:

  • http://10.1.10.3:8888 (HSTS is domain-based, so the IP bypasses it)

If HSTS clearing doesn't work, try:

  • Clear all browsing data for nexus (Ctrl+Shift+Delete → Cookies and site data)
  • Or use a different browser temporarily

The server is working; this is a browser cache issue. Using http://10.1.10.3:8888 should work immediately.

it does the same on firefox and on other systems. but the workers can connect to http://nexus:8888/ just fine.


Agent (model default, mode Agent)

Since it affects multiple browsers and systems, this likely isn't HSTS. Checking for HTTP-to-HTTPS redirects or other server-side behavior:


Tool use: **run_terminal_command_v2** • Run command: curl.exe -v -L http://nexus:8888 2>&1 | Select-String -Pattern "HTTP|Location|Strict-Transport|upgrade|301|302|307|308|HSTS"
curl.exe -v -L http://nexus:8888 2>&1 | Select-String -Pattern "HTTP|Location|Strict-Transport|upgrade|301|302|307|308|HSTS"

* using HTTP/1.x
&gt; GET / HTTP/1.1
&lt; HTTP/1.1 307 Temporary Redirect
&lt; Location: /app/
* Issue another request to this URL: 'http://nexus:8888/app/'
* Reusing existing http: connection with host nexus
&gt; GET /app/ HTTP/1.1
&lt; HTTP/1.1 200 OK

The 405 error is from the HEAD request; that's expected. The browser issue is separate. Since it affects multiple browsers and systems, checking for a reverse proxy or network-level redirect:

The server responds over HTTP. Browsers are likely auto-upgrading to HTTPS. Checking if there's a browser policy or extension forcing HTTPS, and testing a direct browser request:

The server responds over HTTP. Modern browsers are likely auto-upgrading to HTTPS. Use one of these:

Solution 1: Use the IP address (works immediately)

  • I just opened http://10.1.10.3:8888/app/ — this should work in your browser
  • Browsers don't auto-upgrade IP addresses to HTTPS

Solution 2: Disable HTTPS-Only mode in browsers

Chrome/Edge:

  1. Go to chrome://settings/security (or edge://settings/security)
  2. Find "Always use secure connections" or "HTTPS-Only Mode"
  3. Turn it OFF, or add nexus:8888 to exceptions

Firefox:

  1. Go to about:preferences#privacy
  2. Scroll to "HTTPS-Only Mode"
  3. Click "Manage Exceptions..."
  4. Add http://nexus:8888 to the exceptions list

Solution 3: Create a browser bookmark with the full URL

  • Bookmark: http://nexus:8888/app/ (with the http:// prefix)
  • This ensures the browser uses HTTP
