server.allowedHosts in vite.config.js

General
2

After spending many hours on this issue I’m giving up.

It appears that it is now not possible to run strapi in develop mode on a domain with https, because of the new VITE requirement.

I wanted to have an instance of strapi always running in development mode at a specific domain path.

This configuration will not work an gives the error above. The only way to get it working is through doing run develop on the command line and access strapi through the IP address.
http://x.x.x.x:1337

module.exports = {
        apps: [{
        name: 'devStrapi',
        url: 'https://dev.strapi.com',
        cwd: '/mnt/volume/www/cms',
        script: 'npm',
        args: 'run develop',
        env: {
             NODE_ENV: 'development',
             HOST: '127.0.0.1',
             PORT: 1337,
             DATABASE_HOST: 'x',
             DATABASE_PORT: '3306',
             DATABASE_NAME: 'DB',
             DATABASE_USERNAME: 'user',
             DATABASE_PASSWORD: 'pass',
             DOMAIN_URL: 'https://dev.strapi.com'
             }

Nginx config:

    server 127.0.0.1:1337; # Matches ecosystem.config.js
