Common Issues

Node Version

ttunnel requires node version greater than or equal 20, due to resolving localhost issue

Invalid Host Header

Host header is being sent automatically

If you are trying to tunneling Vue, React or any other frameworks, sometimes it requires Host header to be presented in the request headers. To solve this common issue through ttunnel, run the following command:

npx ttunnel start 8080 --host-header=localhost:8080

Restart your tunnel

Sometimes you want to make changes to your codebase, most of times this requires to close the tunnel, but don't worry about restarting the tunnel with the same domain. You just need to remember the domain, or customize it from the beginning.

npx ttunnel start 8080 --domain=my-awesome-subdomain
