BASE_URL doesn't apply to all paths REVISITED

[johlton]

Sorry to repeat the already closed issue #9 this but this is exactly what happens in my docker-compose installation:

• Docker version (docker-compose)
• Installation in subdirectory /rdmo/
• BASE_PATH in variables.env set to /rdmo
• Apache Docker proxy directive for routing the URLs to the rdc-nginx container

The home view comes up smoothly, except for 1 problem: Most of the contained links (not all!) do not have the /rdmo/ path included. The link to the standalone sign-in form works; not working are the form action and the languag switcher and the logo link. They all do not have the BASE_PATH subdir included.

My proxy directive:

ProxyPass /rdmo http://127.0.0.1:8484/
ProxyPassReverse /rdmo http://127.0.0.1:8484/

I noticed the message _"NOTE: BASEURL does not work, will be fixed later" within the variables.env file. What is the current status for this? Might this be the reason for the problem here?

So where to go from here? Any suggestions are highly appreciated. Thanks.

To answer my own question:

Apache Config

ProxyPass        /rdmo http://localhost:8484/ nocanon
ProxyPassReverse /rdmo http://localhost:8484/
ProxyRequests    Off
AllowEncodedSlashes NoDecode

/vol/rdmo-app/config/settings/local.py

Add FORCE_SCRIPT_NAME

try:
    BASE_URL = os.environ['BASE_URL']
except KeyError:
    pass

FORCE_SCRIPT_NAME = os.environ['BASE_URL']
