From my experience, I have to disagree with Brian. Leave out the _prefix settings.
They are set by a proc in config-defaults based on the value of AppConfig[:{frontend,public}_url]
https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/common/config/config-defaults.rb#L55 <https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/common/config/config-defaults.rb#L55>
So if frontend_url is set properly, frontend_prefix should get set properly from that proc.
It should not be the whole URL, but just the path, so in your case, if you do want to set it
manually, it should be: “/archivesspace/frontend/“
I’ve been trying several configurations that mostly (90+% ) work, and I think I’ve finally
found the one that works 100% for me. (Still testing.) There are a bunch of issues.
I’ll follow up with a longer post ASAP.

>> As I mentioned in the original email, I'm following the instructions posted from ArchivesSpace Github to setup a installation with prefixes (https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/README_PREFIX.md <https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/master/README_PREFIX.md>). I have to use prefixes at our institute, I can't use sub-domains due to policies.
