Remote Access

When you can’t reach OpenChamber from your phone or another machine, the fix depends on how you’re connecting.

Check the basics first

  • open http://localhost:3000 on the same computer first — if that fails, it’s not a remote problem; see OpenCode connection
  • confirm the server is running with openchamber status
  • run openchamber tunnel status --all
  • restart the tunnel from the same instance and port
  • regenerate the connect link if the previous one was already used

See Tunnels for the full setup.

Remote instance won’t connect (desktop)

When a remote instance stalls, OpenChamber names the step that failed:

  • auth — your SSH or UI password was rejected; re-enter it
  • install / start — OpenChamber couldn’t set up or start the server on the remote machine; check that machine’s requirements
  • forwarding — the connection is up but the port isn’t reaching you; try a different local port

Behind your own server

If you put OpenChamber behind a reverse proxy and it loads oddly or won’t connect, see Reverse Proxy.
