netbootxyz ipxe not working (no longer?)

[wuchtbrumme]

Hi, I tried to remote boot my vdr server. I usually have used PXE. Now, after swapping some hardware (it's now Realtek 8125 NIC), i find it's trying to use iPXE. I am pretty sure it has worked in the past. The client gets DHCP fine, booting the iPXE test system fine, but the local menu.ipxe is not found. I connected with a browser to the suggested port (8080) and indeed, i find a folder debian-core-12 and debian-squash, but no menu.ipxe.
I am following the guide in https://netboot.xyz/docs/docker/usage (same to set the config directory
docker run -d \ --name=netbootxyz \ -e MENU_VERSION=2.0.84 # optional\ -e NGINX_PORT=80 # optional\ -e WEB_APP_PORT=3000 # optional\ -p 3000:3000 # sets web configuration interface port, destination should match ${WEB_APP_PORT} variable above.\ -p 69:69/udp # sets tftp port\ -p 8080:80 # optional, destination should match ${NGINX_PORT} variable above.\ -v /local/path/to/config:/config # optional\ -v /local/path/to/assets:/assets # optional \ --restart unless-stopped \ ghcr.io/netbootxyz/netbootxyz and the menu.ipxe is contained in /local/path/to/config. But it does not seem to be properly joined by the Nginx process (at least i am assuming for a client to request the file, the webserver should be handling it...).
I need to retest PXE but iPXE can never have worked. The client reports: http:///menu.ipxe not found... connection reset... no more network devices.
The entry in dhcpd.conf is:
if exists user-class and ( option user-class = "iPXE" ) { filename "http://<IP>/menu.ipxe"; } elsif option arch = encode-int ( 16, 16 ) { filename "http://<IP>/ipxe/netboot.xyz.efi"; option vendor-class-identifier "HTTPClient"; } elsif option arch = 00:07 { filename "netboot.xyz.efi"; } else { filename "netboot.xyz.kpxe"; } }

Is it possible that /local/path/to/config/nginx/site-confs/default should have root /config and not root /assets?

booting PXE from an older Realtek worked... kind of. It's RTL8168, so probably not supported out-of-the-box from newer kernels i get from menu 2.0.87. I was on menu 2.0.76 - and most of the files it references are probably no longer available, at least i get file not found errors.

So, the iPXE part in my installation seems to be broken, yet i completely followed the guides.
