Wrong ownCloud instance URL in notification emails

[drybjed]

On my ownCloud installation, mail messages contain the contents:

Witaj User1,

You are receiving this email because the following things happened at http://localhost/

* User2 removed the share for SharedDir - Today 14:29:42

I would think that the correct domain name would be used in the URL, and not localhost. Any suggestion about where to look for the fix?

Have not yet checked that. Thanks for reporting. Do you have an idea/found something to fix it?

It seems that some related strings can be found in:

apps/activity/templates/email.notification.php:print_unescaped($l->t('You are receiving this email because the following things happened at %s', array($_['owncloud_installation'])));
apps/activity/lib/mailqueuehandler.php:         $alttext->assign('owncloud_installation', $this->urlGenerator->getAbsoluteURL('/'));

@drybjed What happens when you share a file by link? The ownCloud instance should be able to figure out it’s own URL. If you are running it behind a reverse Proxy, you might need to configure the base URL using one of the owncloud__config dicts. I have a similar setup up and running for my private ownCloud instances using https://github.com/jchaney/owncloud (which I consider legacy and which needs to be switched to this role some day). Check: https://doc.owncloud.org/server/9.0/admin_manual/configuration_server/config_sample_php_parameters.html?highlight=config#proxy-configurations

@drybjed Any updates on this? I just recheck. My deployments are able to figure out there own URL. What is shown when you try to share a file by link in the web UI. It will give you a preview of the URL there. And what ownCloud version are you using again?

@ypid Sorry, haven't checked that yet. I'll update my ownCloud installation and check again.
