Magento2: 302 redirect loop in multi website/store setup

[raybogman]

Setting up an multi website with 3 store view (en, de, fr)
is getting 302 redirect loop.

setup:

1 website
1 store
3 storeviews (en, de, fr)

nginx:

# domain.conf

map $http_host $magecode {
hostnames;
default default;
yourdomain.fr fr;
yourdomain.de de;
}

# nginx.conf.sample

fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_TYPE website;
fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_CODE $magecode;

after setting the codes, submit the url's in STORES -> CONFIGURATION -> GENERAL -> WEB -> BASE URL per storeview

clear cache and check frontend

your will get a 302 redirect loop

nginx is serving the correct code per domain (MAGE_RUN_CODE) is served

is some situaties my backend got locked as well, it not serving the default url any more.
looking in my network tab of chrome again a 302 loop (a quick workaround of setting up a custom admin url works but not a stable option)

something I also see after comming the FR or DE domain on the storeview level that the last commit URL is located in the website BASE URL (but never commit this)

I tested it on CE and EE

@raybogman i can't reproduce the 302 redirect loop. Can you maybe test it with the new release?

[raybogman]

@daim2k5 still have redirect loop in nginx and apache setup, using the latest release.

Apache: (here are different setups for apache2)

Nginx:

map $http_host $magecode {
hostnames;

mage2cookbook.fr fr;
mage2cookbook.de de;
}

### nginx.conf.sample

location ~ (index|get|static|report|404|503|info).php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
fastcgi_pass fastcgi_backend;

fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_TYPE website;
fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_CODE $magecode;

a little strange
I installed 2 machines with different domain name
I installed both following the magento2 guideline.
one is ok
the other will raise the loop issue when I access the admin page
I google and found this issue could be solved by adding "fastcgi_param HTTPS on;" to /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params

But be carefully, when I add the line to the first "ok" server, it will fail.
I don't know the real issue it's but the problem is still there

[woei66]

the ok server is using AWS China
the bad server is using AWS Oregon

@raybogman @woei66 This issue doesn't seem to be magento related, but related to your server settings. Hence, closing this issue. Please feel free to open a new issue if problems arise.

The solution is to add the following param into /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params if you want setting applied globally, or per VHOST if you want just per host.

fastcgi_param  HTTPS              $https if_not_empty;

It is advised to put this parameter on a global scope of nginx, since it doesn't hurt if you have some stores / sites w/o https, or some which explicitly do use https only as it will be generated on the fly depending on whenever user is visiting http or https site.

Disagree - we're using your boilerplate .htaccess and nginx vhost configs and we continue to get this undesired behavior.
