Additional Notes

This works fine when i'm accessing it directly by IP.. something odd with the proxy..

I see this too, although I cannot say whether it works when accessing via IP. I'm using a subdomain for booksonic, if that makes a difference (like "https://booksonic.example.com").

For now I'm using the workaround of typing "https://booksonic.example.com/musicFolderSettings.view" when I want to change any settings.

Exactly the same.. using a subdomain myself too.. booksonic.domain.co.uk with a lets ecnrypt ssl certificate

I've tried adding the context_path variable (i'm now running this in docker) but i'm not really sure what i'm meant to do with it.. i'm running as a subdomain so im not sure it's needed

In chrome i'm getting this error in the console :

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://booksonic.domain.co.uk/index' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure resource 'http://booksonic.domain.co.uk/musicFolderSettings'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

Before this fixed We can let chrome load the Insecure content for this site instead of block it. Refer to: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/target/using/experiences/vec/troubleshoot-composer/mixed-content.html?lang=en

I was going crazy with nginx trying to use sub_filter to modify the content to change http over to https, I tried all sorts of headers on both the frontend and backend, etc. and I could not get around that Mixed Content error message in Chrome.

@Karamba91 's suggestion of changing airsonic.properties and adding 'server.use-forward-headers=true' worked perfectly. Now I can click around all the various links and everything is https, everything works. Thank you.

To all people who keep finding this thread/bug just as I did, modify your airsonic.properties file (this exists even in booksonic-air) and add server.use-forward-headers=true
