Hello, I just recently installed Passbolt CE with a docker container. I want to run the app in a virtual folder so I set APP\_FULL\_BASE\_URL to /passbolt and set up my reverse proxy to send all requests to the docker containers IP. However, upon opening this URL I am redirected to /auth/login?redirect=%2F and that of course fails. To me it looks like that the URL redirect is not working fully.

I was able by tweaking the URL to finally somehow log in, install the browser plugin and start using it. But on the next day it was again all the same, the redirect kicks my up to the root of the webserver.

FYI the apache2 config is like:

```auto

ProxyPass /passbolt/ http://127.0.0.1:3001/

ProxyPassReverse /passbolt/ http://127.0.0.1:3001/

```
