Cloudron Forum

i am no dev, but as a common user i am looking forward to see this happen!! keep as posted!

oh ok, glad to hear it was not just me and you found the issue! thanks for the help!

damn, all I needed was an app restart... well, now I know

Hello everoyne,

I think it might be my first time posting here. I have the following issue with a project on a server of my client.

We have a Hetzner virtual server, latest Ubuntu version they have. Cloudron has been installed as well as a Cloudron LAMP for a Website based on Kirby CMS. They website allows users to embed links from different platforms, one of them Tiktok. Everything is working fine, except:

• Tiktok embeds are not being autoplayed on macOS Safari nor any iOS browser
• Not only they dont autoplay, but they cannot be played even with user interaction

I have run many tests and came to the conclusion that is has to do with Cloudron. I have checked the following:

• I have tested on Hetzner and netcup virtual servers, both showing the same problem.

• tested on a Hetzer server in the US as well, in case it was due to the location the website is running from (Germany). US server had the same problem

• the problem does not ocurr on regular shared hosting servers, it has been only on the virtual servers

• i then created a new virtual server, this time without Cloudron but only LAMP directly (Hetzner has this option as a ready app). Here the autoplay worked! meaning it has to be something in Cloudron. Sadly my server knowledge is poor (thats why I love using Cloudron since makes things a lot easier) so my direct LAMP installation had some other problems, since I didnt really know what settings I need and what shouod be installed etc etc. It took me a while to get the website running, since many php extensions had to be installed, but again, i got it running and without the autoplay issue.

Has anyone any idea what could be the difference between a virtual server running with Cloudron (LAMP app installed) and regular hosting servers or a virtual server with a direct LAMP on it for that matter?

Any help is really greatly appreciated!!!!

@girish ah thank you, didnt see it while i was wirting. and sorry i misunderstood your request, i just sent you the other link.

@girish it works with both values!!!! thank you so much for your help and patience, girish! i will leave it as 'strict-origin-when-cross-origin'

@marcusquinn not doable, I need the server to work with tiktok by its own. its not 1 video, any user can embed a tiktok, so potentially its hundreds. we also have spotify, youtube, vimeo, twitter, soundcloud and instagram embeds, all working fine. all simple things have already been tested and compared, thats why i am here. at some point I didnt know what to test anymore
