Troubleshootings

1. 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.

---

2. 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"

or

"WARNING: request with non matching host and origin 127.0.0.1 !=vrch.ai, returning 403"

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

python main.py --enable-cors-header

For additional details, refer to this discussion on GitHub.

---

3. 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.

Version Update

This project uses bump2version for version management. To update the version:

1. Ensure you have bump2version installed:

   pip install bump2version
   

2. To update the version, run:

   python update_version.py [major|minor|patch]
   

   Replace [major|minor|patch] with the part of the version you want to increment.
3. This will automatically:
   • Update the version number in __init__.py
   • Update the CHANGELOG.md file
   • Create a new git commit and tag (if you're using git)
4. After running the script, review and update the CHANGELOG.md file with details about the new version's changes.
   • Note: make sure you've put changes in Unreleased section manually
