Hi, is it a clean install? or just happened after the recent upgrade? Try to place the default config file (as stated in docs) to see if it is a problem related with the config. Hope it helps!

follows the step as defined.
PLease find my confilg file:

Hi, this is not the latest default config file as stated in the docs. And also, the address 192.68.0.1 not seems to be correct, is it? is it the address of your server? I suggest you to keep the default value 0.0.0.0 to listen on all network interfaces.

And… this JSON is not valid… take a look to the “cors” and “web_fallback”.
