Can't access webUI for Unifi Controller locally running in docker

I am able to access other docker containers which are hosted on my server via their web interfaces on various ports, but Unifi Controller is giving me "refused to connect" type errors.

This is the output of docker ps

    CONTAINER ID   IMAGE                                  COMMAND         CREATED       STATUS                        PORTS                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           NAMES

This is my docker-compose.yml entry for the controller

  unifi-controller:
    container_name: unifi-controller
    image: ghcr.io/linuxserver/unifi-controller
    restart: unless-stopped

There are some errors in the docker logs but I don't know what they mean or how to fix them. They seem relatively generic when I've searched for them - not entirely sure what the fix is.

I've tried restarting the container, restarting docker and restarting the server. Also ruled out different browsers just in case (Chrome, Edge, Firefox). This was working previously but nothig has changed.

When connected to the same network on my phone I can access the unifi controller by mobile app. I can also access it from https://network.unifi.ui.com

For reference, other applications such as nginx are available on the ports specified in the docker-compose file. I can't work out why it's only unifi-controller that's being difficult.


You have a typo in your port numbers.

Instead of 8843, you need it to be 8443.
