Fail when trying to run webui with ipfsd-ctrl

[denyncrawford]

Describe the bug
I can't connect the webui with the spawned daemon, even with my API.HTTPHeaders options set up inside the ipfsOptions, this is the error I get:

If i reload the webui at the same time my app is starting it shows data and a succes message, just for a sec (if you change webui view it shows the error message again). I can't reproduce this right now.

Reproduction

const { createController } = require('ipfsd-ctl')
const ipfsHttpModule = require('ipfs-http-client');
const ipfsBin = require.resolve('ipfs/src/cli.js');

export const getDataNode = async (port) => {
  const ipfsd = await createController({
    ipfsHttpModule,
    ipfsBin,
    remote: false,
    type: 'js',
    ipfsOptions: {
      config: {
        API: {
          HTTPHeaders: {
            "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": [
              "*"
            ],
            "Access-Control-Allow-Methods": ["PUT", "POST", "GET", "DELETE"],
            "Access-Control-Allow-Credentials": true,
          }
        }
      }
    }
  })
  console.log(ipfsd);
  return ipfsd.api
};

Expected behavior
Connet webui with my daemon.

@denyncrawford you need to enter either URL or Multiaddr:

(we added the above hint in #1811 and will ship in next version)

@lidel This is what I have in that field:

The error is still the same:

And this is how I have my addresses:

Seems like it's not the solution, I have my gateway working, but the webui isn't :/ Thank you btw.

Ah, I just realized you are using js-ipfs (type: 'js').
The latest version of webui does not support js-ipfs.
I'm closing this as we are tracking fixing that in #1737

If you want to use webui with js-ipfs, you need to use older version that is bundled with js-ipfs – it can be loaded via http://127.0.0.1:{api_port}/webui, in your case http://127.0.0.1:5001/webui

Nah, it is the same version:
