I am evaluating Shiny Server enterprise edition. I have a problem with authentication. The thing is that I enabled a Shiny Server with Flag-File authentication. Although when a client tries to access to a shiny app is not possible to see any login form in the web-page. As result the client can not access to the shiny app. Probably I am forgetting something related with the UI login form. The question is if I need to enable something for show the login form as in this example. My shiny-server.conf file looks like this:
# Instruct Shiny Server to run applications as the user "shiny"
run_as shiny;
# Specify the authentication method to be used.
# Initially, a flat-file database stored at the path below.
auth_passwd_file /etc/shiny-server/passwd;
# Define a server that listens on port 3838
server {
listen 8000;
# ssl /etc/shiny-server/key.pem /etc/shiny-server/cert.pem;
# Define a location at the base URL
location / {
# Only up tp 20 connections per Shiny process and at most 3 Shiny processes
# per application. Proactively spawn a new process when our processes reach
# 90% capacity.
utilization_scheduler 20 .9 3;
# Host the directory of Shiny Apps stored in this directory
site_dir /srv/shiny-server;
# Log all Shiny output to files in this directory
log_dir /var/log/shiny-server;
# When a user visits the base URL rather than a particular application,
# an index of the applications available in this directory will be shown.
directory_index on;
}
}
# Provide the admin interface on port 4151
admin 4151 {
# Restrict the admin interface to the usernames listed here. Currently
# just one user named "admin"
required_user admin;
}
I am trying to use the shiny app example provided here which code is here.
Thanks in advance.
There is an error configuring my shiny-server.conf. I forgot to put the options: required_user and required__group.
