[mantisbt-dev] [PATCH] Mantis does not handle forwarded protocol correclty when behind a proxy

[Andrew H. <and...@fi...>]

When I run mantis from behind a public proxy and forward https -> http, I
experience a problem similar to issue#0006134. I want to be able to have users
access mantis securely from a public address https://mantis.mydomain.com and
developers access mantis on the internal network at http://localserver/

To get things to work properly I simply tweaked the config_defaults_inc.php with
the following 

$t_protocol = 'http';
if ( isset( $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'] ) ) { // Support ProxyPass
    $t_protocol= $_SERVER['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO'];
} else if ( isset( $_SERVER['HTTPS'] ) && ( strtolower( $_SERVER['HTTPS'] ) !=
'off' ) ) {
    $t_protocol = 'https';
}

This has the system working in both scenarios. 

I have raised an issue and submitted a patch at
http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=9077

Would be great if someone could review this an it could make its way into the
next release.
