Unable to refresh the statistics in hangfire dashboard


My website running with hangfire on the same server.

The hangfire dashboard runs well on local. However, while I access http://localhost/hangfire/recurring on the server computer, it reports this error:

Unable to refresh the statistics: the server responded with 500 (Internal Server Error). Try reloading the page manually, or wait for automatic reload that will happen in a minute.

I found out the problem on Chrome DevTools: The http://localhost/hangfire/stats returns a 500 (Internal Server Error).

Soon I found the logs about this:

I have added these code in each public async Task Invoke(HttpContext context) of the middleware to prevent it block the hangfire but the problem still here:

if (context.Request.Host.Host.ToLower() == "localhost")
            {
                await _next.Invoke(context);
                return;
            }

How can I solve this? Thank you.


Solution

  • Add this in startup.cs:

    app.UseHangfireDashboard("/hangfire", new DashboardOptions
                {
                    Authorization = new[] {new HangfireAuthFilter()},
                    IgnoreAntiforgeryToken = true                                 // <--This
                });
    

    And now it works.
