Research direction

No file or test is named. Reproduce the noVNC Full connection through the NGINX reverse proxy using the shown host, port 443, and /novncd/ path, then trace the connection setup to identify the mismatch; done means the Full version connects successfully through that configuration.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Server behind an NGINX reverse proxy. When using noVNC Full version, I was unable to get it connected.
