Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui/issues/12516

Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched the existing issues and discussions.
  • I am using the latest version of Open WebUI.

Installation Method

Docker

Open WebUI Version

v0.6.1

Ollama Version (if applicable)

N/A (only using a LiteLLM endpoint)

Operating System

Ubuntu Server 24.04.2 LTS

Browser (if applicable)

Firefox 137.0 (aarch64) MacOS arm64

Confirmation

  • I have read and followed all instructions in README.md.
  • I am using the latest version of both Open WebUI and Ollama.
  • I have included the browser console logs.
  • I have included the Docker container logs.
  • I have listed steps to reproduce the bug in detail.

Expected Behavior

  • I press my "Log In With OAuth" button (Internal Login form is disabled)
  • Open-WebUI contacts my OAuth (Authentik) provider with a URL that begins with https://openwebui.DOMAIN
  • My OAuth provider handles the request (<---- That works)
  • Open-WebUI is opened back with a https:// URL

Actual Behavior

  • I press my "Log In With OAuth" button
  • Open-WebUI contacts my OAuth (Authentik) provider with a URL that begins with http://openwebui.DOMAIN
  • My OAuth provider handles the request (<---- That didn't work at first since the Redirect URL didn't match with the https:// scheme)
  • Open-WebUI is opened back with a http:// URL
  • If I then go back to https://openwebui.DOMAIN, I am not logged into the httpS version, but still logged into the http URL.

Steps to Reproduce

  • Set up Open-WebUI with these environment variables (taken from my compose file) :
      WEBUI_URL: "openwebui.DOMAIN"
      DEFAULT_MODELS: 'llama3-70b'
      OAUTH_CLIENT_ID: 'client-id-was-redacted'
      OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET: 'client-secret-was-redacted'
      OAUTH_PROVIDER_NAME: 'authentik'
      OPENID_PROVIDER_URL: 'https://auth.DOMAIN/application/o/open-webui/.well-known/openid-configuration' #<--- Provider is authentik
      ENABLE_LOGIN_FORM: 'false'
      ENABLE_OAUTH_SIGNUP: 'true'
      USER_AGENT: "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) Gecko/20100101 OpenWebUI/1.0" #<--- Tested without, does the same behavior
  • Set up Authentik, with an Application with a slugset to open-webui, and an OAuth 2.0 Provider with client id and secret matching those in the ENV vars
  • Set up a Nginx Proxy Manager instance, and point open-webui to openwebui.YOUR_DOMAIN, and Authentik to auth.YOUR_DOMAIN. Then, set up Let's Encrypt certificates for your domain This is maybe the step that causes problems, as the public URL is https but the internal url is http?? I don't know
  • Try to log in with authentik
  • see the problem for yourself

Additional Information

  • I am running open-webui behind a reverse proxy, Nginx Proxy Manager
  • I am using Authentik as an OAuth provider
  • I am running open-webui in a Portainer stack, with open-webui, pipelines, litellm, postgres as a db for litellm, and litellm-exporter to get prometheus metrics
  • This O-WUI instance is very experiments, as is the case for all services I run on my old-ass server (a '09 laptop'
  • Each time you see DOMAIN, i have censored my actual domain name. This domain name is proxied through cloudflare and uses cloudflare nameservers

For anyone facing the same issue, using Caddy Web Server, add this to your Caddyfile:

[OPENWEBUI_SUBDOMAIN] {
    reverse_proxy [YOUR_OPENWEBUI_IP]:[YOUR_OPENWEBUI_PORT]
    header X-Forwarded-Proto https # this is the important part
}

  • I was also having the same issue.
  • I am using dex OIDC.
  • I was accessing the open-webuim application with HTTPS but returns OAuth redirect URL as HTTP. So I was getting Unregistered redirect_uri ("http://...")
  • I am using gateway-API instead of Ingress.
  • I fixed it by using X-Forwarded-Proto: https header in my gateway-API HttpRoute file to force the application to use HTTPS for all URL generation.
  • It also woks with Ingress
<!-- gh-comment-id:2826462839 --> @ChandanTeekinavar commented on GitHub (Apr 24, 2025): - I was also having the same issue. - I am using dex OIDC. - I was accessing the open-webuim application with HTTPS but returns OAuth redirect URL as HTTP. So I was getting **Unregistered redirect_uri ("http://...")** - I am using gateway-API instead of Ingress. - I fixed it by using **X-Forwarded-Proto: https** header in my gateway-API HttpRoute file to force the application to use HTTPS for all URL generation. - It also woks with Ingress
