Introduction
I use owncloud inside a Docker (image: owncloud/server).
I have a Apache2 reverse proxy to reach the owncloud server with TLS/SSL.
Everything is working pretty well, I can log in, upload/download file, sync my files with my desktop (Linux Mint).
But I would like to use fail2ban and when I check the log file, I only have Proxy's IP address instead of the user's IP address.
I would like to know how to get user's IP in the log file and keep configuration permenent in my docker configurations.
Note: I tried to find solution in this forum but it's mostly for ngix proxy server nothing really specific to Apache2 proxy server.
I tried some solutions randomly and I didn't get good result.
Configurations
The content of apache/virtualhost file:
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName mycloud.myserver.com
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/mycert.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/mykey.pem
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/apache2/my_ca_cert.pem
ProxyRequests off
<Location "/">
RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto 'https'
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass http://myserver.com:8080/
ProxyPassReverse http://myserver.com:8080
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
I used this configuration with and without the RequestHeader setting. And I still have the proxy's IP instead of user's IP.
The docker-compose file
I used "template" provided in the owncloud docker documentation, I only use my personnal parameters.
I didn't set any special extra configurations.
Expected behaviour
When something is logged in the log file, I would like to see the user’s IP address instead of the Proxy’s IP address.
Actual behaviour
I see the Proxy’s IP address everytime.
Server configuration
Operating system:
Ubuntu 22.04
Web server:
Apache2 v2.4.52 (Ubuntu)
ownCloud version:
ownCloud v10.12.0 (inside a docker with image:owncloud/server:lastest)
Conclusion
Your help would be very appreciated to fix that.
