I get the same error too D:

[AnushaPendyam]

It's due to SSL certification error in the system

[elevenpassin]

@AnushaPendyam How to fix it?

[AnushaPendyam]

Check if there are any security privileges for the system and try to update SSL certificate.Due to security privileges I'm not suppose to update SSL certificates in the office PC so I did not fix it in the same system. when I did it in my Personal PC it's working fine without any errors

I got the same error too,

At first i clone the repository into my local, when i run npm install, i get an error about node-gyp build or utf-8-validate, i find this was gcc version wrong, so i update gcc version,

# gcc 5.2
yum install centos-release-scl
yum install devtoolset-4-toolchain
scl enable devtoolset-4 bash
gcc --version

then i run command npm install correctly has no error。

And next, i found is also has this error localtunnel server returned an error,
then i found it was my nginx config error，you can checkout to branch error-handle
and then will find a directory called devops, then you get nginx config and host config,
in my case , i was config error location node,

ok , you will get your own url, everything ok ?

when i connected my localtunnel server , i found it's auto close after a few seconds in my server command line output。
if you find this error, you should check you iptables,
when i run service iptables stop, it's work fine~~

Good luck!!!

if u use docker, maybe you do not worry about these things~

[ForsakenHarmony]

I'm using docker with traefik, same error

[mababio]

This is still an issue? I currently debugging. I can see a bad return code was returned. It was a 502 error code.

[mababio]

Okay, I took a look at other reported issue and it seems the localtunnel.me is down. Not sure if the unreliability and the reported error message are related

[ladykate17]

@mababio Having the same issue, issues just starting this morning for me.

[mababio]

@ladykate17 It's the first time I'm using localtunnel. It worked in the past for you?

[ladykate17]

@mababio Newer to it as well, but it was working great the last couple weeks I've been using it. I've heard from coworkers it can be unreliable at times. If I find anything I'll try to post back here.

[mababio]

@ladykate17 Thanks for the for info! Also your website and resume is groovy
@defunctzombie I didn't get a chance to use your awesome tool, but thanks for all the effort you put into this open source tool.

[laloumen]

This was working for me on Friday but today is not. So, localtunnel.me is down and there is no workaround or anything?

[samrod]

Yup same herer. Was working Friday and it's now down for me too folks with the same error.

[ladykate17]

It's an ongoing issue - localtunnel/localtunnel#123 (comment) I suppose the solution is find another node wrapper to use for the time being.

New issue has been opened here if you want to follow the progress:
localtunnel/localtunnel#198
localtunnel/localtunnel#199

[samrod]

Alright, it's back up. I guess localtunnel.me was just down. Are there either fallback or alternative servers available for such cases?

Error: localtunnel server returned an error, please try again @@

[William-An]

#69 is also about this error. It is probably due to the use of subdomain like sub.example.com as host.

[defunctzombie]

It is unclear to me if there is a specific issue here with localtunnel server or if the issue is a connectivity or general uptime one. I am going to close this since I think the core of this issue is just localtunnel.me uptime but if there is a specific reproducible case with the server logic please open a new issue with steps to reproduce.

[ForsakenHarmony]

this happens all of the time with self hosted servers
