### What issue do you have?

I cannot connect to Joplin.

I've set up all my apps to have a custom domain to work locally and externally with a wire guard. All of them work without issue expect Joplin.

Heres the config I'm using

```

server {  
server\_name [joplin.home.MYDOMAIN.com](http://joplin.home.MYDOMAIN.com)

```auto
location / {
    proxy_pass http://host.docker.internal:30106/
    proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    client_max_body_size 2048M;
}

```

}

```

Other than that its using the exact same setting as my other apps that are working. On my docker yml for Joplin server I've got it pointed to localhost:30106

DNS has been set up the same too

When I try localhost:30106 on my home network it loads fine.

Is there something I'm not doing right? Any feedback appreciated
