ytzelf 2 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 (edited) Hello everyone, I am trying to get nginx basic http to work with emby but am getting some errors with http headers I added the following lines to my nginx configuration proxy_set_header Authorization $http_authorization; proxy_pass_header Authorization; Which seems to work in some cases (from nginx debug log) 2015/10/19 23:30:05 [debug] 8860#0: *7 http proxy header: "GET /emby/web/dashboard.html HTTP/1.1 X-Real-IP: xxxxxxxx X-Forwarded-Host: xxxxxxxx X-Forwarded-For: xxxxxxxx X-Forwarded-Proto: xxxxxxxx X-Forwarded-Protocol: https Connection: upgrade Host: 127.0.0.1:8096 Authorization: Basic xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8 Upgrade-Insecure-Requests: 1 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 5.1.1; XT1039 Build/LMY48W) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/$ DNT: 1 Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate, sdch Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.8,fr;q=0.6 Cookie: _pk_id.1.460e=ddfc4db714572eee.1445258016.2.1445261772.1445261758.; wanted_view=thumb; snatched_view=list;$ But fails elsewhere 2015/10/19 23:30:01 [debug] 8860#0: *7 HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized Server: nginx/1.6.2 Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2015 21:30:01 GMT Content-Type: text/html Content-Length: 596 Connection: keep-alive WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Restricted" Resulting in a 401 error each time I try to watch a video online (right after clicking on the play button, everything else works just fine). I was just wondering where exactly I would have to make some changes for all requests to include the Autorization header. Disabling http authentification altogether makes everything fine. Thanks a lot ! Edited October 19, 2015 by ytzelf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElJef 0 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I'm trying to do this same setup. I've seen that if I enable the authorization passage, I will be prompted for the username and password multiple times. (as many as 5.) Once this weird multiple authorization is done, everything seems to work from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonfi 2 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Hi, I use nginx as a reverse proxy as well. I don't usually use the nginx authentication since there are users in emby. I tried to add the auth in nginx in my configuration and it works, here's the conf: location /emby { proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8910; proxy_buffering off; proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-for $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Protocol $scheme; proxy_redirect off; auth_basic "Restricted"; auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; } You have to change your emby port and the htpasswd file location, of course. Give it a try and let me know Bonfi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
