Hi

I started a service on the remote server using the following command:

```auto
/home/hty/paraview_build/bin/pvpython --force-offscreen-rendering SimpleCone.py --venv /root/.environments/paraview --port 8081 --host 0.0.0.0 --server

```

But I cannot access it through the remote IP:8081.

At the same time, the server reports an error:

```auto
wslink is not expecting text message:
> {"wslink":"1.0","id":"system:c0:0","method":"wslink.hello","args":[{"secret":"wslink-secret"}],"kwargs":{}}
wslink is not expecting text message:

```

If I remove the `--force-offscreen-rendering` parameter, the popup content is as follows:

But I still cannot access it via the web.

What’s even more interesting is that when I perform the same operation on a Mac computer, I can access it via the web.

Is there anyone who can help me solve this problem? I would greatly appreciate it.

Which version of ParaView? if you use ParaView \< 5.13, you need to use trame\<3.6 and wslink\<2.  
With 5.13+, you won’t get any conflict, but you will need to clear your browser cache.

That’s great, thank you for your reply. My ParaView == 5.10.1, trame == 1.19.3, wslink == 2.2.1.

I downgraded the wslink version to 1.12.4, and the problem was solved.

Thanks again for the solution you provided. 😆
