Avatar link broken on board page when hosted under sub-directory
Summary
I have GitLab CE installed on a private server using the omnibus package and use apache ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse to host GitLab in the sub directory /gitlab/ The external_url in /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb is set appropriately to https://example.com/gitlab
Everything has been working fine since I installed GitLab several months ago, but today I noticed that when clicking on a user's picture on the Issue board page, it incorrectly links to https://example.com/u/matthewlh, instead of https://example.com/gitlab/u/matthewlh
Steps to reproduce
- Setup Apache ProxyPass to host gitlab in a subdirectory of the server by editing the appropriate apache conf file.
ProxyPass /gitlab http://127.0.0.1:8081/gitlab
ProxyPassReverse /gitlab http://127.0.0.1:8081/gitlab
- Edit /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb to reflect desired sub-directory:
## Url on which GitLab will be reachable.
## For more details on configuring external_url see:
## https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/blob/master/doc/settings/configuration.md#configuring-the-external-url-for-gitlab
external_url 'https://example.com/gitlab/'
- Login to https://example.com/gitlab, go to any project's Issues page, then go to the board page. e.g. https://example.com/gitlab/group/project/board
- Click on a user's avatar
Note that on the board page, the user's avitar is displayed correctly and hovering over it shows 'Assigned to Matthew Handley' as expected.
Expected behavior
The user profile of the selected user is displayed. e.g. https://example.com/gitlab/u/matthewlh
Actual behavior
I get a 404 because the link takes me to https://example.com/u/matthewlh
