I am trying to load an internal http page with webframe, but it fails to load anything or show any error message.

When inspecting the frame it shows  the url in the iframe tag definition but it fails to load anything. Is there any way to load it?

In the end i succeeded using nginx as a reverse proxy to load the page via https wiht the ssl certificate in the proxy instead of the page itself

The article wasn't useful at all, but the other post gave me something to work with. Still no success though. I have commented all clickjack filters in the web.xml and the webframe widget still doesn't load anything, not even an error, same as before

In your screen capture of the developer tools you have blacked out the URL. Have you tested this URL from your desktop and from the ThingWorx Server. Does it display as expected?  Are there proxy or firewall which need to be configured?
From the URL that is visible you are using HTTP vs HTTPS. Is that the proper protocol for your configuration?

Have you reviewed the other information in the Developers tools. There is a console which may be displaying an error message which assists in the resolution of the issue you have encountered.
