Blank main page on one forum (subfolder + multisite install)

Hello,

My issue is related to this thread that has been previously closed

Recent Changes Breaking Subfolder Setup?

I’m sorry if I’ve misdiagnosed this, but I’ve recently experienced some issues after an upgrade on a subfolder setup that had been working before, so I think there may have been a regression on some fronts in the recent past? In particular, I am self-hosting Discourse using the subfolder setup described here, which was happily working (AFAICT) until recently. Currently, when logging in using SSO or when switching to/from anonymous mode (and maybe in other situations I’ve not yet found), I am r…

Despite upgrading with the patch provided by @david, I still encounter the issue on one forum out of two (on a multisite install).

https://www.dolibarr.org/forum correctly redirects to https://www.dolibarr.org/forum/
but
https://www.dolibarr.fr/forum does not redirect to https://www.dolibarr.fr/forum/ and thus I am getting a blank page.

Discourse has been setup using Subfolder support with Docker and we are using a multi container docker setup (web_only and data).

Some other things that I have observed is that on https://www.dolibarr.org/forum/, when opening the main hamburger menu, the FAQ link is now on top of the menu whereas on https://www.dolibarr.fr/forum/, it remains on the bottom (I do not understand why and my understanding is that when updating changes normally applies to all forums on a multisite install).

I would appreciate any help

Anything else to do here @david?

https://www.dolibarr.fr/forum does not redirect to https://www.dolibarr.fr/forum/

Thanks for reporting this @jtraulle, it should be fixed by this commit which will hit tests-passed in the next hour.

For the working case, your proxy is adding the trailing slash via a 301 redirect, so it avoided the bug in Discourse

$ curl -I https://www.dolibarr.org/forum
HTTP/2 301 
...
location: https://www.dolibarr.org/forum/

Thanks, you are right did not think about this but this make sense (another sysadm have added a rewrite rule on the Apache2 proxy side for the working forum ).

RewriteRule ^/forum$ /forum/ [L,R=permanent]

Thanks @david, I have applied the update and it is OK
