[CLOSED] Appwrite behind Nginx, locale.get() returns internal IP

I have Appwrite behind Nginx and followed this guide to forward the real user IP: https://medium.com/@stnguyen90/how-to-run-appwrite-behind-nginx-19348ed34243

This works for e.g. user sessions, it saves the real user IP for each session created but the Locale API (Get user locale, https://appwrite.io/docs/references/1.8.x/client-web/locale#get) still returns the internal docker IP: {"ip":"172.18.0.1","countryCode":"--","country":"Unknown","continentCode":"--","continent":"Unknown","eu":false,"currency":""} and no data for country etc.

Is this a bug or am I missing something?

You need to trust the proxy at traefik with forwardedHeaders.trustedIPs If I'm not wrong. https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/reference/install-configuration/entrypoints/#opt-forwardedHeaders-trustedIPs

Yes, I added the forwardedHeaders.insecure and it works for sessions but not the locale for some reason

Not sure then. Cc <@462046107556511744> do you have some idea? 😅

That's weird...both have the same code:

• Locale: https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/blob/b484dd8806bc21c254633c3f44c47aac416ae252/app/controllers/api/account.php#L212
• Account: https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/blob/b484dd8806bc21c254633c3f44c47aac416ae252/app/controllers/api/locale.php#L39

It has the correct IP for me. You sure something isn't caching that locale response?

Today it works and returns the correct IP, it must have been cached somewhere (tried several browsers yesterday and didn't work in any then), strange 🙂
