Cannot login from remote host (put login page loads)

[Garrett6Taylor]

I am trying to stand this software up on a server and access it over WAN. I was able to start the frontend using npm run dev -- --host and could load the login page, but logins immediately failed with no errors. Finally I tested it on my local laptop and was able to login. I finally figured out it was a remote host issue when I tried to login from another device and was unable.

Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Server setup:
Ubuntu 24.04
MongoDB-Community on localhost from apt
Node v.20 from apt

Dev setup:
MacOS Sequoia
Mongo-DB Community Brew Package
Node@20 Brew Package

please check your bowsers network tab when logging in and the frontend is almost certainly trying to send the authentication request to the local host instead of servers actual ip address .
please update your frontend environment configurations to set the api base URL to your server ip address so the remote brower knows that where to send the credentials.
