Grey screen and config not defined

Hello,

I had to reinstall jitsi and now I’m having problem with a grey screen. With inspect I have errors: Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token < (index):132

Uncaught ReferenceError: config is not defined at Object.<anonymous> (AuthHandler.js:18) at Object.<anonymous> (AuthHandler.js:227) at t (bootstrap f4842a46b24bc2fc8a3d:19) at Object.<anonymous> (connection.js:184) at Object.<anonymous> (connection.js:144) at t (bootstrap f4842a46b24bc2fc8a3d:19) at Object.<anonymous> (jquery.autosize.js:274) at Object.<anonymous> (conference.js:2818) at t (bootstrap f4842a46b24bc2fc8a3d:19) at Object.<anonymous> (_replacer.js:6) at t (bootstrap f4842a46b24bc2fc8a3d:19) at Object.<anonymous> (Profile.js:191) at t (bootstrap f4842a46b24bc2fc8a3d:19) at bootstrap f4842a46b24bc2fc8a3d:62 at bootstrap f4842a46b24bc2fc8a3d:62

I have not modified my index.html file at /usr/share/jitsi-meet directory and I have no idea where these errors come.

For the next person who finds this:

I was on debian using the apt packages and nginx. It’s confusing because some of the documentation references /usr/share/jitsi-meet/config.js and says simply that you should “adapt this file to your needs”. That file doesn’t exist by default though.

You may come across /usr/share/jitsi-meet-web-config/config.js and think you are finally on to something, but actually if you provided your domain name when installing the apt packages they will have already created /etc/jitsi/meet/<domain_name>-config.js (a semi-customized version of the default config) for you.

I don’t know why this file doesn’t get a mention in the docs (or why it isn’t just copied to /usr/share/jitsi-meet/config.js like the docs seem to expect… but you can either copy / symlink it yourself or, if like me you are worried that might cause confusion down the line, you can drop something like this into your nginx config:

location = /config.js {
    alias /etc/jitsi/meet/<domain_name>-config.js;
}
