Do you see any errors in the Chrome Dev Tools Counsel when you hit that page?

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Error on v2.5.0 PUI print PDF

Dear Colleagues,

Does anyone have a solution to the problem we have encountered when implementing the AS PUI on a NGINX web server? In the test environment, we receive the attached error message when attempting to print any finding aid in Chrome or Safari browsers, although it works OK in Firefox.

Our technical staff have identified the probable cause as our use of NGINX, as opposed to the Apache webserver.

In the AS notes https://github.com/archivesspace/tech-docs/blob/master/provisioning/https.md#nginx, there are examples configuring Apache, but there is a “FIXME Need nginx documentation” note where the Nginx documentation should be.

Can someone provide us with the NGINX documentation and especially configurations to fix the printing issue?

I am including below an earlier thread related to the issue.

Thanks,

Subject: [FORGED] Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] error on v2.2.0 PUI print PDF: InvalidAuthenticityToken



Just for the record: we were missing these two lines documented in README_HTTPS.md example in our apache config:

       RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Proto "https"
       ProxyPreserveHost On


After adding those lines it appears to work properly.

Also discovered that PDF print thru SSL proxy does work in Firefox after googling “authenticity token proxy ssl”
and seeing title of this Rails issue:

 CSRF protection prevents some webkit users from submitting forms · Issue #21948 · rails/rails<https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/21948>

I’ve been seeing the bug in Safari, and you’ve been seeing it in Chrome. Both, I believe, are webkit based.

Long discussion thread that I haven’t digested yet, so I’m not sure if that is the problem here.
That same google search brings up some other issues that may be related to not passing all of the headers thru proxy.

Thanks. Yes: I’m still seeing the problem. No: no solution so far.
The fact that I was only seeing it on production limited my ability to debug.
Now that you’ve found it’s linked to SSL proxy, I will try to set up test machines to reproduce the problem.

Update: we were able to identify that this error was happening only when running the application over SSL. Accessing the site over non-SSL allowed the print function to work.

Hi Aspace!
I saw this post on the user group but was not able to find the thread in my email so I apologize for replying off thread.
We are seeing this same error and we are running v.2.2.2 However, the error seems to be browser specific as it only happens in Chrome. Here's the log output:

Steve, were you ever able to find a solution for this? Has anybody else encountered this error when trying to print a PDF of a collection in Chrome?
Thanks,
Chelsea
