Does anyone have Calibre's content server working behind an Nginx reverse proxy, while having Calibre's own auth module work? I tried this back in February on my VPS, and I couldn't get it working. At the time, it looked like Nginx wasn't passing some elements in the auth process. I'd get:

Code:

Authorization URI mismatch: ('interface-data', 'init') != ('calibre', 'user', 'plugins', 'web', 'interface-data', 'init') from client: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

errors. I reported the problem to the VPS and they blamed it on bugs in Nginx digest auth module. I don't use Nginx in my proxy setups so I don't know it well enough to know if that's the case or not.

So, has anyone gotten this working? I thought I'd take another stab at it, but if I'm wasting my time, that'd be good to know.

Thanks!
