This get's the app up and running but I'm having issues with app routing.
The app runs fine if I'm connected to port 5000 but when I put it behind nginx as a reverse proxy the logout link which is defined in flask as

With the following location:

        location @proxy_to_app {
                proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
                proxy_set_header HOST $http_host;
                proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080/$request_uri;
                include proxy_params;
                proxy_redirect off;
}
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

This function:

@bp.route("/logout")
def logout():
    """Clear the current session, including the stored user id."""
    session.clear()
    return render_template("index.html")
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Sends the user to a 500 error code.
