Photoprism + nginx = backend not available (alien.top)

Hi gang,

So I got photosprim installed with docker on my system, works great.

I have added nginx and my domain name to access my photoprism from the internet and it works. BUT photoprism complains that it's "offline" and apparently I need to do something in my nginx setup.

Photoprism does conveniently refer to this page of the documentation : https://docs.photoprism.app/getting-started/proxies/nginx/

But I don't understand what I am supposed to do with this, how or where...

Can someone help me out please ?

Thanks in advance !

So can you access it or not ? You're saying it works, but the main app is offline.

Also if you just want to use it as a reverse proxy you can try nginx-proxy manager, I find it easier to configure than "classic" nginx.

I can access it, the app does work, but within the app it says I am offline and some backend stuff (I guess hosted by photoprism itself) isn't working.
