Server Environment
- PHP 5.6
- MySQL 5.6.25
- FreeBSD 8.2
- Apache 2.2.31
- Any Browser

The Console errors are API related. Here's a screenshot of what is being output when I try to add a tag or change a permission in the Admin. My guess is maybe file permissions. Would love some help with this.

It'd be helpful if you could inspect the content of the 500 responses. Might need to do this in Chrome – I haven't found a way to do it in Safari thus far 🙂

Judging by the 401 response though, Apache may not be passing the Authorization header along to PHP. Try something like this?

Toby Hopefully this is what you wanted to see:

Errors in Chrome

henshaw Yep, looks like the Authorization header isn't being passed through. If you scroll down a bit, are you able to see any mention of the word "Authorization"? Did you try the solution I linked to Toby?

zabca

henshaw He means clicking the Network tab, instead of Console and clicking the request that gives the 500, then switching to the Response tab within that. Then you will get an idea of what the error is.

zabca Toby Thanks for the clarification. Hopefully I'm getting closer...

I tried the following in my .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*) RewriteRule .* - [e=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%1]

but that didn't work and this caused a server error:

WSGIPassAuthorization On

I'll get help from one of my software engineers tomorrow at work and let you know. Thanks for your help with this so far. I'm in love with Flarum and can't wait to start using it and sharing it with people.

Toby Update...got it to work.

1) I'm using CGI wrap on my server in order to run the latest version of PHP, which may be related to the issue. I'm on a managed server at Pair Networks.

2) I added the following to the .htaccess file:

RewriteEngine on RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]

3) I added the following to the beginning of the config.php file:

$_SERVER['HTTP_AUTHORIZATION'] = $_SERVER['REDIRECT_HTTP_AUTHORIZATION'];

That made everything work. It took awhile for a developer friend to figure it out, but that ended up being the solution.

Same! This should be covered by default.
