When in edit mode, all page content is marked for removal

Question

Hi, in Confluence 8.5.14, when editing pages proxied by nginx, from outside, all  page content is automatically set to be removed. If "Published" the page is completely wiped and needs to be reverted from history. However, when the edited page is just "Closed", the changes are kept, BUT, needs to be published from within domain network, internally.

In contrary, creating the PAGE, from outside, is not an issue,. The page title remains, but the content of page is removed, again.

Do You have suggestion what makes the editor or synchrony issues? How is possible that the same URL access from different environments

This is a major blocking factor for our teams to work effectively.

Ahoj Petr,

I am thinking about this for some time.. To be honest it is hard to determine and reproduce this without any logs or error? Do you maybe see any when you access Network tab on your browser? Are there any logs on NGINX reverse proxy? I would start by checking those things.

Just to clarify... Are you sure also that all settings are correct with this guide?

Ahoj Mirku, diky za tip ...just a test of CZE ;-)

Hi Mirek, thank You for Your hint. Unfortunately, did not work for us, yet.

Let me describe it even more. The confluence is installed on Windows Server 2022. Inside of the domain works all OK. But, when accessing it from outside, It does not reflects the page editing on outside. It keeps it in "to be saved location" and could be saved only from inside of the domain. In other words, when I review the changes before "Update" the page from outside, the whole page is marked as "This line was removed".

Strangly, when clicking LIKE or when creating a new PAGE, it works perfectly fine.
