Usability issues

Hi If I log in as an admin, and then proceed to the root URL “/”, then I get a Uhh what did you just do? (500) error. I think it should show the template corresponding to the “index” route.

Also if a team logs in before the CTF has started, then also a 500 error page is rendered just after login.

So I pulled and tested, but it did not change anything. This works for me:

to CTFd/__init__.py add:

from werkzeug.contrib.fixers import ProxyFix
app.wsgi_app = ProxyFix(app.wsgi_app)

and the following Nginx conf:

proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host your.project.domain.org;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://unix:/root/gunicorn.sock;

This fix even works when I enable CloudFlare for the domain. Ofcourse it is not for everybody (those who do not use a reverse proxy for deployment 😛 ) but you should probably add this to the wiki.

I’m reasonably sure 85e8a9d should address this issue. If anything it clears up some IP tracking issues.
