Codeigniter and cloudflare, problem with session? - StratoKyke - 09-17-2015

When I active cloudflare in my site the sessions save the ip of cloudflare's server.

I add the ip in proxy ip in the config to get the correct ip sessions?

This is the list https://www.cloudflare.com/ips


Thanks for the reply.

No, CI_Session will ignore the proxy_ips setting and that's on purpose. Just don't use sess_match_ip; it is made mostly for intranet environments.

This is not the right way to do.

Define trusted CF proxy IPs in virtual host configuration. No need to change in CI config
