Coder on fly.io

Hello, I'm trying to setup coder on fly.io with tailscale/caddy/magicdns. I have the control plane setup and running fine(?). I have created what seems like a reasonable template and a docker image for the workstations but I'm not able to get a workstation connected to the control plane. I'm trying to use docker locally and have started the "workstation" in the control plane. I have the agent key and am following all the instructions I can find but I continue to get a 401 attempting to attach an workspace / agent on startup. Is what I'm trying to do reasonable? I feel like I'm missing something on the provision step. It sort of seems like the console plane workspace creation might not be completing as I am not able to open the "build timeline" and the pulsing spinner on the right side continues indefinitely. Thank you everyone in advance.

Where is your workspace being created? Is it a fly.io machine? How is that provisioned?

Dusty RhodesOP•4w ago

This is super stale, but I realized (i think?) that the feature I want, external provisioning, is a pro only feature. Unfortunately the named seat model doesn't work for our usecase so I'm going to manage it myself it's too bad, I really liked coder
