Ngnix Deployment and Mixed Content Errors

[odedgolden]

Hi All,

I am using FastAPI + Uvicorn + SQLModel and deployment behind Nginx.

Since my Nginx is configured so that http requests are restricted, I get the following errors:
Mixed Content: The page at '<URL>' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure script '<URL>'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

This resources of course can be reached when using https instead, however, I don't know how to enforce this upgrade to https inside SQLAdmin.

Assuming I don't want to allow http, does anyone have any suggestion on how to solve this?

Thanks a lot! 🙏🏼

Hi @odedgolden,
I have the same problem. Have you found solution?

Hi @Uten92,
I didn't find a solution.

One option is to to fork the repo and change the http urls to https, and then have it as the dependency instead of the official pip version. In that case you will avoid the Ngnix issue but will have trouble running it locally.

Hey, I just saw this thread.
I think it might not be possible for you, but Nginx could get HTTPS request but do SSL termination and talk to the backend with HTTP.

If that's not an option, you didn't really explain how you're deploying your project, but you could also use HTTPS with Uvicorn: https://www.uvicorn.org/deployment/#running-with-https

I'm not sure why you would need a change in the Admin side as it should be a few steps before that to handle this.

Thank you, @aminalaee and @odedgolden .

I use nginx as a proxy and I found solution for me in official documentation.

It helped me - using parameter --forwarded-allow-ips='*' and --proxy-headers on startup uvicorn https://www.uvicorn.org/deployment/#running-behind-nginx .

Hi everyone,

I also encountered this problem. I am using:

• Docker service: NGINX reverse proxy
• Docker service: Gunicorn (with uvicorn workers)
• Docker service: PostgreSQL (irrelevant here)
• certificates from Let's Encrypt

This StackOverflow solved my problem: https://stackoverflow.com/a/70485650/4189676

I simply added --forwarded-allow-ips='*' to my Gunicorn command. I made no additional changes to my NGINX configuration.
