  • Unable to connect to my searx

    I'm having the exact same issue on my Arch machine. I think this Github issue might be relevant.
  • can someone please give me instructions on how to install only searx in docker?

  • Certificate
    1 project | /r/Searx | 9 Feb 2022
    I found a solution so if anyone comes across this thread with the same question here's how I resolved it. I installed Searx using the instructions found here. https://github.com/searx/searx-docker on a laptop and while the instructions got the service up and running the https cert wasn't trusted so I kept getting an error when accessing the service at https://localhost. To resolve the issue I installed Caddy. Trusted the cert, and ran the CA now I can access https://localhost and get Searx without an error. Hopefully someone with more knowledge of web services will comment on this tread and provide a more detailed expiation but here's there commands I ran on my Arch Linux install so modify to your needs. # pacman -S caddy # caddy trust
  • CSP Breaks Searx instance
    1 project | /r/Searx | 18 Apr 2021
    There is some extra stuff you've got to give it permission to access out of the box. You can see an example csp here https://github.com/searx/searx-docker/blob/4ad61d64991d76a7d300b7b867771ffed9f224ca/Caddyfile#L83 that will work nicely with searx itself however possibly not plugins. Your browsers devtools can be very helpful in figuring out what exactly you need to add/change if something specific is not working. Post the details of that if you are still having issues while using something like what I have linked.

    If you are not comfortable with Linux you could install Searx using Docker, it's very simple and officially supported: https://github.com/searx/searx-docker
