Question
Webbrowser open() fails on Rust server

Asked by hannydevelop
I have an Ubuntu droplet for my Rocket (Rust) application that works fine. However as this application uses Google oauth2 workflow, I have a webbrowser::open() function to open a url automatically for authentication. This function never gets called in my droplet but works appropriately locally. I use Nginx as a proxy server and would love if anyone can help me.
Please let me know if you need any more information.

Hi @hannydevelopdolphin,
What error you do see when loading the application? Have you checked the Nginx error log, it should provide more detailed information on the issue that you are experiencing. You can check the application’s log as well.
I’m not sure on the application’s log however you can check the Nginx log in the /var/log/nginx folder.
Hello @hannydevelopdolphin
Have you examined the Nginx access/error_log files on the droplet to check for any error messages or status codes?
We have a tutorial on NGINX Access Logs and Error Logs which you can check here:
