Traccar Client works via port 443 / https ?

jjulian2 years ago

I am using the Android Traccar Client and I thought I had to publish port 5055 of Traccar Server. However, Traccar seems to work just fine if I configure https://mytraccarserver.example.org in my android client as a server (which means port 443 is the only port I have opened right now).

Do I miss some functionality this way?

Best,

If you get data from your phone in traccar server this way it means it works. The port or SSL doesnt really matter, the data stays the same. With SSL though you have a secure connection.

Nice. Yeah, I thought maybe port 5055 is used for a second data channel with additional data or something like that (because docs state port 5055 everywhere).

We have an internal proxy from the web port (8082) to the OsmAnd port (5055). That's why it works.

I didn't knew that Anton, actually i use nginx ssl proxy port on 5055 to provide the ssl connection for the osmand protocol.

We had to add it at one point because people keep trying web port and then complaining that the Client app is not working.
