Docker documentation: case for users with VPN about n8n HOT 3 CLOSED

Hey @F041,

Can you clarify what the bug is that you are reporting? It looks like what you are seeing is expected and you would likely not be using Traefik if you are running n8n on a VPS that needs a VPN to access it.

Not a bug. Just a request to expand the documentation to aid more users

Hey @F041,

In that case as it is not a bug I am going to close this as we only use GitHub issues for bug tracking. If you can be a bit clearer on what you think we should document though I can look at opening a docs issue for that.

We do consider self hosting an advanced feature and we can't document every possible configuration option so we do tend to lean towards what is going to help the most users and for other things rely on the knowledge of the user configuring it. In this case I am still not sure why you would be using Traefik if you are using a VPN to access n8n but I think we do make it clear on the error page what needs to be done.

Always happy to look at improving the docs where possible if it makes sense to though
