CHttpRequest::getIsSecureConnection() and Nginx

Yii 1.1 Tips, Snippets and Tutorials

Looks like CHttpRequest’s decision on whether we have a SSL request or not is based on the server variable called HTTPS:


public function getIsSecureConnection()

{

    return isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && !strcasecmp($_SERVER['HTTPS'],'on');

}

But nginx doesn’t define such a variable.

Obviously we should add it:


	location ~ \.php$ {

		fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;

		...

		fastcgi_param HTTPS on;

		...

	}

Voila!

Hope it will save some of your time :)

Just to clarify… this trick does not work if you are using Nginx as a reverse proxy to Apache. Apache refuses to accept that header and put a suffix in front of it so you have to extend the CHttpRequest and accept your own header (a bit complex but works).

I can change for all my application the HttpRequest class instead of update the framework class?

Is there any config in main.php that i can do it?
