Getting 404 error when trying to access web ui

Hi everyone!
I’m trying to install web ui for incus, but it doesn’t seem to work, I’m getting 404 error all the time.

Thanks

$ pacman -Ss incus
extra/incus 6.4-1 [installed]

$ incus config show

$ curl -k https://localhost:8443/ui/

$ sudo lsof -i :8443

I managed to make it work with full system reboot, somehow systemctl restart incus didn’t help

When you install the Web UI package, it populates the corresponding directory at /opt/incus/ui/. Incus is showing the pages from that directory, or the respective directory for your Linux distribution. If the HTTP error is 404, then the files were not found, or Incus is expecting to find them elsewhere.

To figure out what is going on, run the following in a separate terminal window. It should show logs of what Incus is doing.

incus monitor --pretty
