wallabag: Wallabagger for Firefox not working with self-hosted instance (Docker)
Issue details
I just deployed a Wallabag instance to my server using the official docker-compose. I also use Nginx as a reverse proxy.
Docker compose and Nginx configs here.
The web UI and the Android client are working fine but the Wallabagger for Firefox extension does not work. I configured it properly (and successfully) and when I try to bag a page I get the “Saving the page to wallabag…” message forever. The Wallabag icon turns yellow upon clicking and then red. See screenshot bellow.
Looking at the docker-compose logs (when running up without the `-d’ option) shows me this error when I try to save a page with Wallabagger:
db_1 | 2018-09-18 12:17:26 58 [Warning] Aborted connection 58 to db: 'wallabag' user: 'wallabag' host: '172.23.0.3' (Got an error reading communication packets)

Same problem with 2.3.5 on Ubuntu 18.04, apache2 2.4.29 and php-fpm 7.2.10. I suppose that there is a problem with the firefox extension. I started a a tcpdump on my machine an saw no connection to my server while invoking the plugin.
Is there a debug view in firefox which helps me to inspect what the wallabag extension is doing?
I’m using the “plain git install” (no container), so I guess the issue might be more appropriate here, right? 😉
Thanks for your continued efforts, wallabag is very useful to me.
I just did, sadly the issue remains.
