Bug: Issue loading page about kitchenowl HOT 4 CLOSED

This error only occurs when you haven't setup the FRONT_URL correctly inside your configuration.
See https://tombursch.github.io/kitchenowl/get-started/
The FRONT_URL should exactly match what you would type into the URL bar of your browser and needs to be set on both the backend and the frontend

Edit: This includes the schema so https if you're using ssl

Thanks Tom, I did end up changing the FRONT_URL to 192.168.7.77 rather than localhost and it works.
I'm not sure how big of a deal it is to fix this bug, but for a lot of people, the error may cause issues as they assume localhost is the same as the host's IP(192.168.7.77 in my case) or 0.0.0.0. I know I troubleshot it for quite some time before realizing it would ONLY work with the IP address(even from the host machine).
Further, if I had localhost as the FRONT_URL, I could reach the frontend from another PC via the IP address, but got the connect to server error, which is the same issue, but still confusing.
If it's not something you can easily fix, may I recommend adding a clear comment in the docker-compose.yml example file?
NOTE: I don't see the error on the Fdroid Android App.

I know it's a bit confusing to setup, the linked issue/PR will fix that

I just published a new stable release that gets rid of the FRONT_URL variable. This should fix everybody's problems related to that.
See https://tombursch.github.io/kitchenowl/get-started/ for the updated/simplified guide.
