The page of jekyll-admin is blank

Description:

Tell us a bit about yourself:

• Version of JekyllAdmin I’m using <HINT: use bundle show to check>:
  jekyll-admin (0.8.1)
• Version of Jekyll I’m using <HINT: use bundle show to check>:
  jekyll 3.8.5
• Version of NodeJS I’m using <HINT: use node -v to check>: Not using node
• Operating System <e.g. OS X, Windows>: CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core) (VPS)
• Browser <e.g, Safari, Chrome>: Chrome

Steps to reproduce:

I expected the following:

1. jekyll is installed correctly；
2. But the jekyll‘s default port is 4000, so I installed the nginx, and then proxy the data from 4000 to 80 port. The configure of nginx is as follows:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name 47.107.164.222;
    location / {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:4000;
    }
}

and when I enter IP (instead of IP:4000) in the browser, the page of Jekyll is displayed normally, as follows: 3. When I installed Jekyll-admin and typed IP/admin in the browser, the page was blank. No information was displayed, as well as error.

But got the following, instead:

A blank page

So how to solve this problem?

Got it working!

     location ^~ /admin {
         proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4000/admin;

         auth_basic "Administration";
         auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/htpasswd;

         proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
         proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
         proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
         proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
     }
     location ^~ /_api {
         proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4000/_api;

         auth_basic "Administration";
         auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/htpasswd;

         proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
         proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
         proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
         proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
    }

Ideally we’d combine the blocks using a regex, but I can’t get it working - I’ve tried

     location ~ ^/(admin|_api)(/.*)? {
         proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4000/$1;

        ....

(this block needs to come before regex location matches for the main site) but for some reason .js and .css files get their mime type set to text/html when I do this.

And you must enable some kind of authentication - I’ve used http basic auth

         auth_basic "Administration";
         auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/htpasswd;

See the nginx docs

I have same problem. When I send http request to /_api/configuration/ with Referer header, it just returns 403 stauts. Without Referer header it works fine.
