Can't access Convex cloud hosted server
Can't open the Convex dashboard for all of my projects, and verify our client isn't able to access too:
WebSocket connection to 'wss://shiny-dolphin-222.convex.cloud/api/1.18.2/sync' failed:
It happened a couple days ago too, but I think after a few hours it fixed on its own. Do you what is the cause, and how to prevent it?

Where do you see that error, in the dashboard?
In the client, it fails to connect websocket. In the dashboard, I can't open a project
@ethanlolomg that deployment looks healthy, is that the right one?
Can you try opening http://shiny-dolphin-222.convex.cloud/instance_name in a browser and confirm it loads?
I think all the projects are having the same problem
any chance you're on a vpn or something? we sometimes find some internet devices block *.cloud once in awhile

I'm not using a vpn
ok so
- you and we can hit some HTTP endpoints on this instance, like
https://shiny-dolphin-222.convex.cloud/instance_name
- your dashboard can't load any deployment in any project?
- we don't see errors for this instance
so we're wondering about some issue from the client. Curious if things are different on your phone or another networkOh wait, I think it just fixes on it own like last time 😅
I tried on my phone and it worked, but saw it's working on my laptop too
next time this happens, could you run
npx convex network-test
in that project?
Re client not being able to access as well, that's interesting
oh by
verify our client isn't able to access too:what do you mean, a user of your site? or your ConvexHttpClient or similar
Like our frontend, weren't able to make any query/mutation to the server, returning failed websocket connection in console log
@ethanlolomg Do you know approx when this started and ended this time?
I don't know the exact start, but I first noticed it 4 p and it ended around 5 p.
Last time, it happened Jan 28th started around midnight lasted until 4 am
@Tom it just occurred again, and this is the output I am getting from running npx convex network-test
On my phone it seems fine, but on my laptop Convex dashboard and query don't seem to work
Ah interesting, looks like the network test doesn't work with this older version of Node.js installed
