[BUG] No Login Possible behind nginx reverse proxy with active access control #77

Open funky123 opened 2 days ago

Describe the bug After activating the directory protection of the reverse proxy manager Nginx, I am asked for the password of the directory protection and then I get to the login of ByteStash itself, if I log in there, it asks again for the directory protection, but does not accept it

To Reproduce Install ByteStash Order HTTPS with Lets Encrypt Activate Activate Access Control

Expected behavior Login should work

Screenshots

Platform docker compose

For those how is struggly with this problem at the moment there is an alternative solution with a Cloudflare Tunnels. The Cloudflare is free and can replace your Ngnix.

It requires:

to have a Docker in your network instead of nginx proxy manager
to have a domain (buy or free)
chage nameservers of your domain to Cloudflare
