    This error typically occurs in a setup where the Kubernetes API server, Rancher server, or another

    service requiring WebSocket connections is behind a proxy or SSL termination device that does not
    fully support WebSocket connections.

    Here’s how you can address this issue:

    1. Verify Proxy/WebSocket Support

     Check Proxy Configuration: Ensure the proxy server supports WebSocket connections (ws://
    and wss://). Popular proxies like Nginx, HAProxy, or Traefik need explicit configurations to
    allow WebSockets.

     Nginx Configuration for WebSockets: Add the following in your Nginx configuration:

     location / {

     proxy_pass http://your-backend-service;

     proxy_http_version 1.1;

     proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;

     proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";

     proxy_set_header Host $host;

     }

     HAProxy Configuration for WebSockets: Ensure option http-server-close and http-request


    set-header are configured:

     frontend fe_websocket

     bind *:443 ssl crt /path/to/certificate.pem

     mode http

     option http-server-close

     http-request set-header X-Forwarded-Proto https

     acl is_websocket hdr(Upgrade) -i WebSocket

     use_backend be_websocket if is_websocket

     backend be_websocket

     mode http

     server server1 127.0.0.1:8080

     For Traefik, enable WebSocket support via middleware.

    2. Configure SSL/TLS
     If you're using SSL termination at the proxy, ensure:

    o The SSL certificate is valid and not self-signed (or properly added to trusted CA).

    o The connection between the proxy and backend server uses a proper protocol (HTTP
    or HTTPS).

    o The backend server expects HTTP or HTTPS based on how the proxy forwards
    requests.

    3. Enable CORS if Necessary

     If the WebSocket server is accessed from a different domain or subdomain, Cross-Origin


    Resource Sharing (CORS) should be configured on the backend.

    4. Check Browser and Network

     Clear browser cache or try in incognito mode.

     Ensure no corporate firewall or browser extension is blocking WebSocket traffic.

    5. Debug Logs

     On Rancher/Kubernetes: Check logs for errors in the rancher or kube-apiserver pods that
    might indicate a configuration issue.

     kubectl logs -n cattle-system <rancher-pod-name>

     kubectl logs -n kube-system <kube-apiserver-pod-name>

     On Proxy Server: Look for denied or dropped WebSocket connection attempts.

    6. Test WebSocket

    Use a tool like wscat to test the WebSocket connection:

    wscat -c ws://your-websocket-server

    7. Additional Rancher Configuration

    If you're using Rancher, ensure the following settings:

     Use a NodePort or LoadBalancer service for Rancher instead of default ingress.

     Set the CATTLE_AGENT_CONNECT environment variable to ensure agents can connect:

     env:

     - name: CATTLE_AGENT_CONNECT
     value: "true"

    If the problem persists, please share more details about your setup (e.g., proxy server type, SSL/TLS
    setup, Kubernetes ingress, etc.) for further troubleshooting.
