I'm trying to use the tracker proxy with the following topology:

Client (simple static HTML)   ------> Matomo (with tracker-proxy)

The Matomo instance is on the same server as the client. Curiously, other websites using the proxy tracker on the same server, and with no apparent differences in their vhost files, are tracked accurately.

I experimented with a RemoteIPHeader X-Forwarded-For tracker proxy setting but am still failing to make this work. Might anyone have further instructions to share?

Fixed — there was a breaking typo in my code. Apologies for the false alarm.
