Hi All,
I have nginx 0.7.6 in front of Drupal 6.3 in a test environment.
I have edited settings.php:
'reverse_proxy' => TRUE,
'reverse_proxy_addresses' => array('192.168.2.179'),
Where can I look to see a X-Forwarded-For address? I don't see it in the sessions table (hostname).
I have tested with plain old PHP to confirm that my proxy setup is copesetic and written X-Forwarded-For into the apache log (i.e. %{X-Forwarded-For}i) but how do I confirm my proxy setup is working with Drupal?
My apologies if this is obvious! But smite me with the answer!
Cheers
Jason

As URL?
Assuming it were ./files, then try sthg like <?php base_path() . 'files' ?>

Well, assuming you are talking about URLs, you should be all set. All Drupal modules see the world from the Drupal document root, so <?php base_path() . 'files' ?> should be fine for a URL.
What is it you cannot get done?

ok, John, you have to understand the difference between URLs, on the one hand, and file system paths, on the other.
When you are generating a path for an image, say a logo, in order to specify a SRC attribute, that path must be a URL for apache to use and not a file system path. In other words, either " http://example.com/sites/all/themes/my_theme/images/cool_logo.png", or a relative URL (relative to the Drupal document root) "/sites/all/themes/my_theme/images/cool_logo.png".
This is complicated by the fact that for CSS, a background image would be:
#mission { background transparent url(images/background.png); }
Now, let's say you need to get the file system path to an image in order to open it up and get its properties, however, like width and height, because you want to make a thumbnail on the fly.
The following works for me. Assuming I open up an image node and can access its $file -> filepath property. The absolute path can be attained like this:
$filedir = realpath('.') . '/' . $file -> filepath; $info = image_get_info($filedir);
That works for me, perhaps someone has a better way of doing this.
The relative file system path woujld be your "opendir(files/path_to_image)", which works in many cases (all?). The reason it works is because the current directory is the Drupal document root (is where PHP is executing normally), so my absolute path above depends on this (realpath(".")) as does your relative path.
Perhaps the best lesson is, if it works for you, use it. But you must understand the difference between URLs and functions which return URLs, and file system paths, and functions which return these.

For some reason this works from deeper directory levels: opendir("files/"); but this doesn't: opendir(base_path() ."files/");
Is this a misapplication?
