Public bug reported:
I have my apache installation setup behind an nginx reverse proxy. When
I try to use the access controls(for example in an htaccess file) to
allow/deny by ip address, apache only sees the proxy's ip. A php script
sees the remote_addr variable set correctly however.
I downloaded the version from 12.10(libapache2-mod-rpaf_0.6-7),
installed it, and now everything works as expected. I'd love if the fix
for this could make it into 12.04, since I try to stick to only packages
I can get from the official repos. The 0.6-7 version also seems to fix
#930540 (Mismatching module name in .conf for libapache2-mod-rpaf 0.6-2)
What I expected to happen:
The ip address of the client to be used in access controls in apache, instead
of the ip address of the proxy server.
What happened instead:
The ip address of the proxy is used, making rules like "Allow from 10.0.0.0/24"
break since they see everything as coming from the proxy server instead of the
actual client.
System Details:
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (amd64)
apache2-mpm-prefork 2.2.22-1ubuntu1
libapache2-mod-php5 5.3.10-1ubuntu3.2
libapache2-mod-rpaf version 0.6-2
Please let me know if I can provide any other information.
