Primary storage on object storage and forward proxy

[pmarini-nc]

Hello,

We have a Nextcloud server that:

1. needs to use an external S3 bucket as primary storage.
2. outbound traffic must flow through a local Squid Server.

We have verified that using local storage (datadirectory) as primary storage and setting the proxy to the local Squid Server with its port and allow_local_remote_servers to true, everything works fine, i.e. we can download apps and get server checks working.

However if we switch to object storage things break and we cannot see requests in the Squid log regarding requests to the S3 server URL.

In addition if we define the same bucket as an External Storage with properly setting the proxyvariable, the bucket works fine.

So, we suspect that the proxy variable is simply not taken into account in the scope of object storage as primary storage.

Is this correct? If so, can support to proxyextended in this sense?

Thanks!
