#MiniFlux users, can anyone help?
Hi all. I’m having some issues with MiniFlux, a #SelfHosted #RSSReader, and hoping someone can help. MiniFlux was working fine until I tried to deploy ReactFlux on the same domain as it, rss.laniecarmelo.tech, on a subpath, /reactflux. This didn’t work so I removed ReactFlux. I also migrated MiniFlux from #Docker to #Pacman package, thinking it would be easier on my system. This problem, or a similar one, was occurring before I did that though.
Now, rss.laniecarmelo.tech loads the MiniFlux login page, but when I login, it redirects to a blank page at rss.laniecarmelo.tech/login. I’ve added trusted proxies and cookie configuration to my miniflux.conf and headers to my Caddyfile, but I still have the issue.
I’m using #Caddy for #ReverseProxy and #Cloudflare for #SSO. Has anyone seen anything like this before? This is on a #RaspberryPi500 running #ArchLinuxARM.
I’ve checked MiniFlux logs, and it’s getting the login requests and creating sessions. I’m not sure what’s happening after that. Cloudflared and Caddy seem to be working normally.

You don’t have paths for your reverse proxies. You need to tell them where these routes go if this is 30X redirect, otherwise, they have no idea what you’re trying to get to.
Use your browser console to track the requests and report back.
@just_another_person Not sure what paths to add or how. I don’t know the MiniFlux UI that well to know every path it needs. I didn’t think you had to add paths to the reverse proxy, just the subdomain. That’s how all of my services are configured.
Well that’s a whole “how to computer” conversation I’m not going to dig into in it’s entirety, but if you’re unfamiliar with patching and routes for web services, you’re going to have a bad time with the setup you’ve chosen.
Have a run through their docs and check some of your configs maybe: https://miniflux.app/docs/howto.html
@just_another_person I’ve looked into it a little, and I don’t think I need to add paths to my Caddyfile since MiniFlux has its own subdomain with nothing else on it. From what I’ve gathered, adding paths is most useful if you have different services running on one subdomain.
No, paths and routing take a base URL into account, then handle redirects when/if they come into play and point it where it needs to go.
If this app is sending you a redirect to /login and you’re getting a blank page, we need to know WHY. This is why I said to report back with your browser’s console log when you make the request and get redirected. It will tell us exactly what is happening.
@just_another_person I’ve looked at my console log, and it’s blank. Nothing comes up when I get redirected.
It can’t be blank if you’re getting a redirect AND blank page. Make sure you check the network tab as well.
@just_another_person Someone else helped me figure it out. My proxy rule for MiniFlux was a bit off. It works now. Lol now trying to get ReactFlux working.
