Request to Cancel v2 Redirection for Icons When Using Non-Standard Ports

[chenjuefei]

Since updating to version v0.21.0, while using a non-standard port for reverse proxying, all icon links are automatically, resulting in a 302 redirect. This change has disrupted the normal display and functionality of icons. I kindly request reconsideration of this redirection behavior, as it complicates configuration without clear benefits. Feedback on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

non-standard port can you define what you mean by this?

I apologize for the lack of clarity in my initial description. I'm using Nginx Proxy Manager (NPM) to reverse proxy Stirling-PDF. Due to network configurations, the service port on NPM is set to non-standard ports instead of the typical 80 or 443. For example, accessing https://example.com:2443/site.webmanifest?v=2 results in a 302 redirect to https://example.com/site.webmanifest. I've tried modifying the settings in NPM with proxy_set_header Host $host:2443, but this introduces other issues like mixed content errors. All these problems began with the update to version v0.21.0; everything was working fine before then.

After updating to version 0.24.3, I encountered even more issues than expected. I discovered that a large number of CSS and JS files could be subject to 302 redirects. I had no choice but to diligently search for a solution. Finally, I found the following method, and I hope it won't cause any additional problems.

location ~* \.(js|css|png|jpg|jpeg|gif|ico|svg|webmanifest)$ {
    expires 1y;
    proxy_pass http://172.20.0.100:8080;
    proxy_redirect http://172.20.0.100:8080 https://example.com:2443;
}

I have the same problem. Due to v2 redirections I get 302 and 502 errors for all files that use “?v=2". So, my Stirling-PDF installation is only partly useable because part of the UI is broken.
Due to other services running, I need a complex proxy-setup on my server and I was not yet able to fix this problem.

Awesome. Version 0.24.5 solved this issue!

Thank's for the new version. The proxy works and the UI looks great now!
