No http.base_url was found in the discovery information error after update

Configuration

Hello,
I’ve recently received an update to the IOS app for HA.
I’ve been previously succesfully using it.
Here are the facts:
HA is running natively on a server (not in a docker or chained environment), which also runs an Apache proxy.

  • IP address of the server is 192.168.1.3
  • there is an DNS address dedicated for home assistant, let’s call it : home.domain.com
  • The SSL certificates are installed on apache!

I’ve configured according to the documentation found on the internet, but the mobile app still won’t allow me to set it up since updated to 2.0.
Here’s the configuration:
HA: configuration.yaml section http:

http:
   base_url: https://home.domain.com
   cors_allowed_origins:
    - https://google.com
    - https://www.home.domain.com
   use_x_forwarded_for: true
   trusted_proxies:
     - 127.0.0.1
     - 192.168.1.3

Apache configuration:

<VirtualHost *:443>
  ServerName home.domain.com

  #sslforfree
  SSLCertificateFile    /etc/apache2/ssl/sslforfreehomeassistant/certificate.crt
  SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/sslforfreehomeassistant/private.key
  SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/apache2/ssl/sslforfreehomeassistant/ca_bundle.crt

  ProxyPreserveHost On
  ProxyRequests off

  ProxyPass /api/websocket ws://192.168.1.3:8123/api/websocket
  ProxyPassReverse /api/websocket ws://192.168.1.3:8123/api/websocket
..
  ProxyPass / http://192.168.1.3:8123/
  ProxyPassReverse / http://192.168.1.3:8123/

  ProxyPass /config http://192.168.1.3:8123/
  ProxyPassReverse /config /config http://192.168.1.3:8123/


  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} =websocket [NC]
  RewriteRule /(.*)  ws://192.168.1.3:8123/$1 [P,L]
  RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} !=websocket [NC]
  RewriteRule /(.*)  http://192.168.1.3:8123/$1 [P,L]

</VirtualHost>

I can succesfully reach lovelace from a browser on the address: https://home.domain.com and the certificate is valid.

Could you help me out what is wrong with the configuration and how to correct it to allow login from IOS app?

Note: using the local ip address it works when on LAN at home in the same network.

I guess you need to add http(s) to you base url (https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/http/) in the confguration.yaml also check if you have the mobile_app: in there. https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/mobile_app/

Both were there. Meanwhile I’ve managed to work it around: at initial setup, I’ve connected to the local network and there auto discovery worked. Afterwards, I’ve changed to mobile network, I’ve rewritten the hostname to be a global DNS name and it still works.
So now it’s working…
