I am trying to create my own websocket with Workerman library and connect my frontend part with the server. I am using Apache2 to run it.

So, let’s see, how it looks like:

$worker = new Worker('websocket://127.0.0.1:80');

$worker->onMessage = function($connection, $data) use($worker) {
    foreach($worker->connections as $clientConnection) {
        $clientConnection->send('Hello World');
    }
};

Worker::runAll();

let socket = new WebSocket('wss://localhost:80');

Nothing’s really special, just the way it should be done. At least as I see it.

I got no problem with opening the page with the address:

https://localhost/websocket/test.html

However, I get the error on my browser JS console:

WebSocket connection to 'wss://localhost:80/' failed

Well, ofc I tried many different ways to fix it that people recommended under similar topics.

I tried to open the page with the ‘127.0.0.1’ in address instead of ‘localhost’. The same thing. I tried to change ‘localhost’ to ‘127.0.0.1’ in address for connection in JS code – still nothing changes.

My self-signed SSL certificate works fine though the browser tells me the connection is not secure. At least I can ignore it and open the page. Still, the page can’t get connection to the websocket.

I also tried the things in Firefox, still getting what I get.
