Error 404 on code-server on iPad via Raspberry Pi

[LJ-03]

Hi there! So I set up a raspberry Pi 4b to wirelessly connect to my iPad, so I can ssh into the Pi from my iPad, using Rob from TechCraft’s wireless tutorial. I then followed a guide to set up code-server on my Pi so that I can view it in browser on my iPad too. I followed the instructions in both of these guides:
https://medium.com/swlh/vs-code-for-ipad-and-other-phones-and-tablets-252e8cace2aa
https://github.com/andreivisan/Raspberry-Pi-4-Code-Server

Everything seemed to be fine, and I’ve been able to get code-server running via sudo systemctl start code-server, but when I route to my iPad’s IP address followed by the chosen port (8080), it gives me a 404 error.

I’ll go through what I have for my setup.

I’m running Node v 14.19.0 (I had a command line prompt that this was the latest compatible version with code-server)
npm v6.14.16
Yarn 1.22.17

I had yarn already installed before I ran the guide, so I believe it installed via Yarn when I ran curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh to install code-server. After that I was prompted to set my path via this command: PATH="$(yarn global bin):$PATH" which I did. For my code-server .config.yaml and code-server.service files, I created these with the following commands:

sudo vim /lib/systemd/system/code-server.service
Content:

[Unit]
Description=code-server
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
Environment=PASSWORD=my_password
ExecStart=/home/pi/.yarn/bin/code-server —bind-addr 0.0.0.0:8080 —user-data-dir /var/lib/code-server —auth password
Restart=always

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

sudo vim /home/pi/.config/code-server/config.yaml
Content:

bind-addr: 0.0.0.0:8080
auth: password
password: my_password
cert: false

After setting and saving these, I used the standard:
sudo daemon-reload
sudo systemctl start code-server
sudo systemctl enable code-server
sudo systemctl status code-server

Which then gives me the following:

● code-server.service - code-server

And that’s about it! I’ve tried re-installing code-server a few times, looked at a few different configurations of the code-server.service and config.yaml files but no such luck. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!!

EDIT: I don’t know if it’s worth mentioning that because of the way my Pi is set up that I have two IPs when I run hostname -I. I’ve tried both when running code-server and both give the 404 error.

Absolutely highest possibility - #4900

But I thought it was fixed - I need more details, like are you using the brand new Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit or the 32-bit one? Or are you using the Legacy edition?
Moreover, I need the code-server version, your iPadOS version, some code-server's built-in error logs(I think you might know, but if you don't, it's code-server --log debug) as well as DevTools Console screenshots. I'll try repros once you send me the required data during the weekend(I'm a teen and I need the RasPi during that time), but if there are simple fixes, @jsjoeio might point it out.
Moreover, are there any peripherals that could possibly disrupt the performance?

[im-coder-lg]

Phew this is almost solved!!! Why is the issue closed then?

[jsjoeio]

It's out on npm now!

So @taeuscherpferd what did you do? Just update npm? Would I just need to update npm and it should be okay? Even if I installed code-server via yarn?

[im-coder-lg]

I guess all you have to do is just get the beta package from npm or yarn.

I just upgraded code-server to version 4.10 just as @taeuscherpferd and am happy to report that it is working! 🥳🎉 Thank you to everyone who was so quick to jump in and help! This is an awesome and very helpful community!!

I was also having same issues. And upgrading code-server to latest version 4.10 solved the issue.

To upgrade, just re-ran the install command:

$ curl -fsSL https://code-server.dev/install.sh | sh

[im-coder-lg]

Happy to find it's solved!

[jsjoeio]

Hooray! Very happy to hear that!
