Troubleshooting "BAD CSRF" error on initial site setup?

Right, and my first guess was to make sure X-Forwarded-Proto was being appended properly by the reverse proxy—and it is. That’s the annoying thing here—the configuration between the working forum and the new one is identical.

And when I say “identical” I mean literally using the exact same processes and config files :smiley: They’re both on the same server, so other than the nginx configuration file in sites-available they’re even using the exact same set of configuration files. Everything’s the exact same.

The nginx config is pretty short—hard for me to screw that up:

server {
	server_name [redacted];
	listen 8881;
	listen 8882 http2;

	sendfile on;

	location / {
		access_log off;
		proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
		proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
		proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
		proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
		proxy_redirect off;
		proxy_pass http://localhost:7996;
	}
}

The only differences between it and the config for the working forum is the server_name directive and the port I’m passing to.
