Upgrade your libwesockets to the latest version and try again.

@williamherry maybe，😄

[tsl0922]

Can you try if the docker image tsl0922/ttyd (based on 16.04) works? I had tested on native ubuntu 16.04 host, it works fine, too.

[williamherry]

Chrome not work, but firefox works, thank you :-)

[williamherry]

@zlx 😄

[tsl0922]

@williamherry What's the version of Chrome that doesn't work? I'm using Chrome(latest version), too. This maybe a libwebsockets issue, you can try the latest upstream version v2.0.3, ubuntu only maintains the 1.7.x version currently.

[williamherry]

@tsl0922 yes, you are right, the version of Chrome is very old, after upgrade to latest version, everything works, thanks

Euhm I have same error with latest chrome on os x : Version 71.0.3578.98. It does work in safari on os x mojave. But the gotty go version does not have this issue on same chrome and safari browser. I did brew install ttyd and tried using it in chrome os x version 10.14.2.

output of ttyd with chrome:

ttyd -p 9000 bash

Ok extra info. When I clear all my cookies it does work in Chrome also!
So some libwebsockets setting is somehow limited in size and breaks if a browser with many cookies tries to open the url of ttyd.
But still this is an issue basically it doesn;'t work when you have too many cookies set in your browser ;). Like said gotty go version does not complain here...
