ActionDispatch::ShowException always calls rescue_action_locally if there is a reverse_proxy

Reported by Adam | July 21st, 2010 @ 01:08 AM

The problem is on our staging environment with Rails 3 all errors are rendered with full exception details.

We have tracked this down to the ShowExcpetions middleware w/ a reverse proxy.

When the request comes in, Nginx sets the remote_addr to be 127.0.0.1 because the reverse proxy is on the same host. ActionDispatch::ShowExceptions#local_request? is always returning true because according to the env hash it is a local request.

It seems to me this method should use the action_dispatch.remote_ip if it is available. The RemoteIp middleware is configured after the ShowExceptions middleware.

We can create a patch if this is in fact a bug and not desired behaviour.
