Hi,
I have another probem 
I have two printer with octoprint.
Now I would like to have nginx as reverse proxy with basic authentification.
This works fine with the first instance, with /printer1 and /webcam. And here is the trouble. I can setup /printer2 to show the second octoprint, but I can't add a second location for the webcam on the second octoprint.
Is there a way to change the /webcam stream to another location?
Cheers
Kiwix
Thanks for the example. This is just want I was looking for to get started with an niginx reverse proxy for OctoPrint!
I'm using Nginx in a docker container with built in letsencrypt support and SSL, but the principle should be the same. Here's what I've got to serve up Octoprint on a subfolder of my main domain and with a webcam (Logitech C920) working fine.
My Raspberry Pi has a static IP on 192.168.0.240.
I can reach Octoprint on https://server.com/octoprint & the webcam on https://server.com/octocam
This reverse proxy configuration works "out the box" with no edits required to /boot/octoprint.txt
location /octoprint/ {
proxy_pass http://192.168.0.240/;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Scheme $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Script-Name /octoprint;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
client_max_body_size 0;
}
location /octocam/ {
proxy_pass http://192.168.0.240:8080/;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Scheme $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Script-Name /octocam;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
client_max_body_size 0;
}
Once you've confirmed that the above two are working you can configure Octoprint in the webui with a webcam stream URL of https://server.com/octocam/?action=stream and a snapshot URL of https://server.com/octocam/?action=snapshot
Obviously the IP of 192.168.0.240 and server.com will be replaced by whatever you are using in your setup.
Just posting here in case anybody is struggling.
Any chance you can share your subdomain config info? I'm using letsencrypt in a docker image on an R710 server and trying to figure out the proper subdomain config file
Thanks for posting that!
I Copy pasted that into a file "octoprint.subfolder.conf" in the config files for my LinuxServer/LetsEncrypt container, and it worked perfectly.
I was previously working fine using subdomains, but I needed to change my certificate so I restructured LetsEncrypt.
Here was the working config I had for a LetsEncrypt Subdomain:

I have a different issue. Created a separate topic Nginx reverse proxy stuck at "Loading OctoPrint's UI, please wait..."
I stumpled across this, coming from Unable to display OctoPrint inside Home Assistant iframe
haproxy example from first post is deprecated, for reference my current version:
backend octoprint
# ref https://community.octoprint.org/t/reverse-proxy-configuration-examples/
http-request replace-path ^([^\ :]*)\ /local_octoprint_proxy/(.*) \1\ /\2
http-request add-header X-Script-Name %[req.hdr(X-Ingress-Path)]
option forwardfor
server octoprint OCTOPRINT_HOST:OCTOPRINT_PORT USE_SSL VERIFY_SSL check
The http-request add-header X-Script-Name is the most important.
I run some small haproxy against the octopi image which also runs some haproxy. Because, why not.
Here is a basic Caddy Server v2 configuration, assuming you are running Caddy on the same machine as the OctoPrint. It is easy to adapt if your OctoPrint installation is on another machine. The example is in the "Caddyfile" style.
localhost
reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1
header_up X-Scheme {scheme}
That's it.
In my specific case, I have a subdomain assigned to the OctoPrint installation, which is running on another machine from Caddy Server. My configuration is thus:
subdomain.example.com {
reverse_proxy 192.168.0.100 {
header_up X-Scheme {scheme}
}
}
Because I have not specified http at the beginning of subdomain.example.com, the default is assumed to be https, and it will automatically generate a Let's Encrypt certificate and attach it by default.
I was looking for a Caddy example to replace the haproxy.cfg (to use Caddy instead of HAProxy). It's surprisingly simple:
host.domain:80 {
reverse_proxy localhost:5000
handle_path /webcam* {
reverse_proxy localhost:8080
}
}
47 lines of haproxy.cfg are replaced with 6 lines of Caddyfile. And if you want TLS, it's just a few lines more (if this were exposed to the Internet, which it shouldn't be, you'd get TLS by just getting rid of :80 on the first line--but if it's internal, you'd need to configure for DNS validation, or use Caddy's internal CA).
I have added octoprint to my existing nginx reverse proxy.
I generally followed the first post and it was successful.
However, in the octoprint settings, I had to add a period to the beginning of the Stream URL in the webcam.
As follows.
./webcam/?action=stream
PSA: haproxy 2.2.x (included in Debian 11 "Bullseye") no longer supports the reqrep configuration keyword. Instead, it uses http-request replace-path. The above haproxy.cfg needs to have the
reqrep ^([^\ :]*)\ /webcam/(.*) \1\ /\2
line in the backend webcam section replaced with
http-request replace-path /webcam/(.*) /\1
If you're upgrading a 0.18 or earlier version of OctoPi to Bullseye (or just upgrading haproxy to 2.2.x) then as well as the change above you also need to remove the reqrep line in the backend octoprint section in the default OctoPi configuration file. There is no need to add a new http-request line in the backend octoprint section to replace it.
Thank you @MMcLure, you got me pointed in the right direction. After updating the OctoPi 0.18.0 image from Buster to Bullseye I had to correct my HAProxy.cfg to the below setup. Only required me to make changes to anything related to reqrep or reqadd.

I just spent a while getting octoprint to work using Nginx Proxy Manager docker image 1.26.0 and wanted to share my findings. I am using a wildcard certificate from the SecureTrust CA on nginx to plain-text HTTP on the octoprint side.
I was getting the dreaded websocket errors. I finally figured out that if I used "$scheme" for the X-Scheme header, the scheme would not be set properly. Hard coding this to "https" instead fixed that problem. I was also having a problem where occasionally, the webserver would redirect to the hostname with a comma and the hostname again. (e.g. octoprint.example.com,octoprint.example.com) This caused total failure. Sometimes, it would only happen in Safari, and other times, only in Chrome.
I finally got it figured out, and was able to setup both of my Octoprint instances behind nginx using Nginx Proxy Manager docker image 1.26.0 without any further issues. Here is what I recommend for using Nginx Proxy Manager on docker:
proxy_set_header X-Scheme https;
client_max_body_size 0;
That should do it. Using "https" as the scheme was the lynchpin for getting the websockets to work, and removing the "Host" header from the custom location fixed the redirect with the extra comma. If you are not using SSL in nginx, then you should omit the "X-Scheme" configuration line.
Many of the options that are recommended are automatically added to the config by Nginx Proxy Manager, and for whatever reason, adding them again causes issues.
You can also view the full configuration file that is created by looking where docker stores the files for the container that Nginx Proxy Manager is running in. Here is the proxy host config file for my working setup:
server {
set $forward_scheme http;
set $server "192.168.2.92";
set $port 80;
listen 8080;
listen [::]:8080;

I hope that helps someone.
I've been trying to use this but Im ending up in loop at the login scren, have you made any updates to your config since you posted this by chance?
Im trying to get just the webcam view to proxy out (so others can only see whats printing, but not see the whole octoprint controls, etc).
I run an apache webserver (hosting a few websites for friends/etc), which sits on both the public and private networks (dual homed/NICs).
I went to my 1 personal site config and added to its virt config:
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass /whatsprinting http://192.168.IP.ADDRESS/webcam/?action=stream
ProxyPassReverse /whatsprinting http://192.168.IP.ADDRESS/webcam/?action=stream
(of course with the real IP of my octoprint Pi in place of "IP.ADDRESS"...)
When I go to the private IP stream URL (on same network), it works fine, I see just the camera view.
When I go to http://www.k5ktf.com/whatsprinting (you could see it if you go there) I get
Snapshot
Refresh the page to refresh the snapshot
Snapshot
Stream
Stream
Is there something in the httpd.conf or octoprint config I need to add/change?
Thanks
Jim
Nevermiiiiind....
I found the issue...
For anyone else pulling hair out, you just use a rewrite rule with the [P] proxy flag instead of ProxyPass:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/whatsprinting http://192.168.IP.ADDRESS/webcam/?action=stream [P]
#ProxyRequests Off
#ProxyPreserveHost On
#ProxyPass /whatsprinting http://192.168.IP.ADDRESS/webcam/?action=stream
#ProxyPassReverse /whatsprinting http://192.168.IP.ADDRESS/webcam/?action=stream
(the lines beginning with # are commented out of course, and will be removed from my config)
Thanks!
Jim
I'd like to share my traefik example configuration, as i'm running many docker containers on a separate raspberry and using traefik there as a reverse proxy with basic authentication for access to octopi (for the Octoapp). This is stored as a traefik file configuration. I also added a ratelimit of averaged 3 requests per second and 10 for a burst of time (traefik docs doesn't specify the timeframe what a "burst of time" is).

Hi,
I've got my Nginx reverse proxy all setup and working with the webcam location as well, but am concerned that anyone can access my webcam externally by going to https://myserver.com/webcam/?action=stream. Is there a way to block external access to the /webcam location while still allowing it to work with Octoprint while using Octoprint externally?
