Troubleshootings

Image Not Displayed in Popped-Up Image Viewer Window

For Chrome, you may need to add the ComfyUI server's IP address manually in chrome://flags/#unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure to enable access to the content. For other browsers, an http-to-http setup should allow for seamless access without additional configuration.

How can I resolve the CORS policy error when trying to display images?

If you’re encountering a CORS policy error with a message like this:

"origin 'https://vrch.ai' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource"

you can resolve this by launching the ComfyUI service with the --enable-cors-header flag. For example:

python main.py --enable-cors-header

For additional details, refer to this discussion on GitHub.

Why can’t the ComfyUI service run at HTTPS/TLS/SSL on port 8189?

ComfyUI Web Viewer provides a build-in, self-signed certificate (intended for development only, not production use). To launch the ComfyUI service with HTTPS enabled on port 8189, use the following command:

# Start ComfyUI with HTTPS using the built-in certificate and key
python main.py --tls-keyfile ./custom_nodes/comfyui-web-viewer/https/key.pem --tls-certfile ./custom_nodes/comfyui-web-viewer/https/cert.pem --port 8189 --listen

For more details, refer to the ComfyUI official instructions.
