Sage 10 + DDEV + Browsersync - exposing port 3000 - 400 Bad Request

Hi there.

I’m currently trying to set up a comfortable dev environment for me and my staff. I’ve tried out a lot of different set ups and settled for using Docker + DDEV. Very intuitive and easy to use in my opinion. Also, on Windows, lightning fast when using it in combination with WSL2.

Everything works as expected when I’m building on my local machine, but ideally I would like to build on the Docker instance, so when I get a new intern, the only thing I have to show them is how to start and use the DDEV machine.

I found a couple of topics on how people are approaching the issue, but I have yet to find a working solution.

I used this example to expose port 3000 on DDEV, which seems to work. However, I’m now running into the problem where, if I run yarn dev and go to http://localhost:3000, I get 400 Bad Request - The plain HTTP request was sent to HTTPS port.

Trying different nginx configs didn’t solve my issue. But I’m sure that’s where the problem lies. This is what my (still default) config looks like:

.ddev/nginx_full/nginx-site.conf

# ddev wordpress config

# If you want to take over this file and customize it, remove the line above
# and ddev will respect it and won't overwrite the file.
# See https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/stable/users/extend/customization-extendibility/#providing-custom-nginx-configuration

# Much of this config is adapted from
# https://codex.wordpress.org/Nginx

Is there anyone who also uses this set-up, knows why this happens, or can point me in the right direction to solve this problem? I’m not a great server admin and any help would be very appreciated. Thanks.

I managed to get it to work. Opened 3000 on HTTP and served Browsersync via the domain name on HTTP.

.ddev/docker-compose.browsersync.yaml

# Override the web container's standard HTTP_EXPOSE and HTTPS_EXPOSE
# This is to expose the browsersync port.
version: '3.6'
services:
  web:
    # ports are a list of exposed *container* ports
    expose:
      - '3000'
    environment:
      - HTTP_EXPOSE=${DDEV_ROUTER_HTTP_PORT}:80,${DDEV_MAILHOG_PORT}:8025,3000:3000

Hi @Bart

I am trying to run ddev with bud on an Apache front end.
I have the same bud configuration as you.
I was not planning to use browsersync but why not.
Do you have any extra conf on the ddev configuration (config.yaml)?

After running ddev, what do you do?

yarn bud dev

then ddev browsersync ?

Thanks :slight_smile:

Hi @aksld,

I’m currently not using this setup anymore, so I can’t help with this. Sorry.

have you given up on ddev ?
