Nextcloud version: 22.0.0.11
Operating system and version : Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Apache or nginx version: 2.4.29
PHP version: 7.2
The issue you are facing:
When accessing nextcloud via reverse proxy the login page only displays plain old HTML text with the following content:
# Nextcloud
[Nextcloud](https://nextcloud.com) – a safe home for all your data
Login is not possible. No buttons, no images. Just a naked html text with default background
Steps to replicate it:
- Run a fresh nextcloud docker container and bind it to a port (eg. 8080) on your server.
- Setup a ProxyPass/ProxyPassReverse in your apache configuration that maps that port to a path on your SSL secured webpage. For example, if your Domain is example.org:
ProxyPass "/nextcloud" "http://127.0.0.1:8080"
ProxyPassReverse "/nextcloud" "http://127.0.0.1:8080"
- Access nextcloud via https://example.org/nextcloud → You will see that the login page only displays plain text and does not provide any login forms nor buttons.
The purpose of this configuration is to use the reverse proxy to pass SSL secured traffic via https://example.org to the unsecured nextcloud server that is running on the same machine. Accessing nextcloud directly via example.org:8080 works perfectly fine and displays everything as intended, but is not SSL secured.

I suspect that the reverse proxy somehow prevents the execution of js scripts or causes some other scripting related issue, but I wouldn’t know how to fix that problem. Help is greatly appreciated.
