Hi guys;

I´m using a basic slim api V4; in apache server, i can read header, BUT in Nginx, i can´t; what i have to do to work in Nginx, please?

$app = AppFactory::create();  
$app-\>addBodyParsingMiddleware();  
$errorMiddleware = $app-\>addErrorMiddleware(true, true, true);  
$app-\>get($rootRoute . ‘v1/smallroomlist/’, RoomList::class . ‘:getSmallRoomList’);

In RoomList controller:

```
public function getSmallRoomList(Request $request, Response $response, array $args): Response
{
    var_dump($_SERVER); << goes empty in Ngnix, but full in Apache
    
    $token = '';
    $headers = $request->getHeaders(); <- always empty in Nginx...

    foreach ($headers as $name => $values) {
        if ($name == 'X-Auth-IApi-Token') {
            $token = $values[0]; 
        }
        if ($name == 'X-AUTH-IAPI-TOKEN') {
            $token = $values[0];
        }            
    }

```

I read about headers in slim webiste, but in Nginx, headers allways be empty,.

Tanks;

Problem solved; Nginx configurations were blocking the API. Only the autoloading of classes still doesn’t work on Nginx despite working on Apache.

Can you share what configurations were generating the issue and how did you solve it? For posterity
