Save X-Forwarded-FOR IP Address was created by vtccrs
Hi all!
I know there is the "Save IP" functionality in Limesurvey - but this does not work in my case because I have a Load Balancer in front of the server running limesurvey. Limesurvey always saves the IP of the loadbalancer.
This setup cannot be changed... ;-/

Does somebody know how/where I can modify Limesurvey to save the X-Forwarded-FOR IP Address ?!?

Thanks a lot for answering!!

I am using:
LimeSurvey Version 1.90+ Build 9487

Hi,

c_schmitz told me where to find it. thx a lot!

[11:59] <c_schmitz> |crs|: lets see
[11:59] <c_schmitz> currently $_SERVER is used
[12:00] <c_schmitz> save.php around line 336
[12:01] <c_schmitz> i think you can replace that with $_SERVER
[12:02] <|crs|> that would have been my question... so $_SERVER should work?
[12:02] <c_schmitz> yeah
[12:02] <|crs|> thanks a lot! i will check it!

This will be fixed in 1.92 so that the right IP address is saved always.

I am currently running Version 2.00+ Build 130428, and I have setup LimeSurvey behind our loadbalancing server. However, I am still only seeing the IP address of the load balancer. Is there something that has to be adjusted in the new versions to enable this?

I have the same problem as @datatime_rowan but with version 2.05+
Is there a way to configure that?

Thanks a lot,
Lo
