Summary

Links in the Projects page have an incorrect redirect URL.

Steps to reproduce

1. Assume a configuration where the Gitlab instance is behind a reverse proxy path. I'm running my instance on https://myurl.com/gitlab.
2. Navigate to the Projects page.
3. Click on a project link. The redirect will go to https://myurl.com/someuser/someproject.
4. Go back.
5. Click on another link on the page, such as Admin or something from the left sidebar. You will be redirected to the correct path, https://myurl.com/gitlab/whatever you requested.

What is the current bug behavior?

The bug behavior is the incorrect URL redirect.

What is the expected correct behavior?

I would expect that the URl redirects to myurl.com/gitlab/... instead of myurl.com/...

Relevant logs and/or screenshots

Results of GitLab environment info

external_url as configured in gitlab.rb:

external_url 'https://myurl.com/gitlab/`

nginx configuration:

location /gitlab/ {

    proxy_pass http://i.p.add.r:port$request_uri

    // other headers

}

Possible fixes

I do not have a possible fix in mind. One thing worth noting is that even though the project URL is wrong from the Projects page, going to the project Settings -> General Settings -> Advanced -> Change path actually does show the correct URL with /gitlab/ in the path.

I believe that this also was functional until recently (within the past 1 month).
