I upgraded Geoserver on my test server to version 2.19.0. I have been using 
this version on my dev server without issue.

The difference between the dev and test servers is the test has a reverse proxy 
set to allow external access to the layers. As a consequence I have set the 
Proxy Base URL in the Geoserver Global Settings to match. The Proxy Base URL is 
also set on the Edit Workspace page. This has been working  without issue in 
previous versions and the Admin interface uses the local URL. My production 
server is running version 2.18.1 with this configuration.

If I have the Proxy Base URL set in both places in my test instance the Admin 
interface applies the Proxy Base URL (from the Global Settings page) to all the 
pages in the Admin interface.  The consequence for me is that when a request to 
Geoserver goes through the reverse proxy an authorization header is added. This 
means that I am no longer logged in as an administrator.

If I remove the Proxy Base URL from the Global Settings page Geoserver works 
normally.

While this does not seem to be a major problem, the behaviour is different to 
previous versions.

Is this the expected behaviour?

Regards,

Graham Humphries
