Console Shows "Connection Lost"

If the noVNC console or Server Terminal worked fine over plain HTTP but shows "connection lost" only after switching to HTTPS, this is a known, specific cause: HTTP and HTTPS are served by two independent nginx server blocks, and the WebSocket proxy locations (/vnc-ws/, /internal/terminal-auth, /terminal-ws/) need to exist in both.

Fix: go to Configuration → SSL Settings and reapply your certificate configuration. That regenerates both the HTTP and HTTPS vhosts consistently from the same template, so the WebSocket paths end up in both. Confirm with nginx -t afterward and reload nginx if you're doing this by hand rather than through the panel.
