+## Troubleshooting Guidelines
+
+### Before ANY Production Troubleshooting:
+1. **ALWAYS request specific details**:
+   - Production server URL/IP
+   - Current error messages/logs
+   - Recent changes or deployments
+   - Affected users/galleries
+   - Time of issue occurrence
+
+2. **Thorough Analysis Required**:
+   - Use detailed thinking/analysis for EVERY troubleshooting task
+   - Review all related code before suggesting changes
+   - Consider all potential side effects
+   - Never make assumptions about production environment
+
+3. **Safe Troubleshooting Steps**:
+   - First, reproduce issue in local/dev environment
+   - Analyze logs without modifying production
+   - Create detailed action plan before any changes
+   - Always have rollback strategy ready
+   - Document every step taken

+### Common Issues & Safe Approaches:
+- **Email not sending**: Check email_queue table, SMTP settings, service status
+- **Photos not loading**: Verify file permissions, storage paths, nginx config
+- **Gallery access issues**: Check JWT tokens, expiration dates, access_logs
+- **Performance problems**: Analyze with monitoring tools first, never experiment
+
+### Data Safety Rules:
+- NEVER delete or modify production data without explicit backup confirmation
+- ALWAYS verify backups exist before any data operations
+- NO direct database modifications without transaction safety

+## Backup Service
+
+### Overview
+The backup service provides automated, scheduled backups of all photo data with checksum-based change detection to minimize transfer overhead.
+
+### Features
+- **Multiple Destinations**: Local directory, remote server (rsync), S3-compatible storage
+- **Change Detection**: SHA256 checksums track file changes, only modified files are backed up
+- **Scheduled Execution**: Configurable cron-based scheduling (default: 2 AM daily)
+- **Email Notifications**: Alerts on backup failure, optional success notifications
+- **Retention Management**: Automatic cleanup of old backup runs based on retention policy
+- **Progress Tracking**: Database storage of backup history, file states, and statistics
+
+### Configuration
+Backup settings are stored in `app_settings` table with `backup_` prefix:
+- `backup_enabled`: Enable/disable the service
+- `backup_schedule`: Cron expression (e.g., '0 2 * * *')
+- `backup_destination_type`: 'local', 'rsync', or 's3'
+- `backup_retention_days`: How long to keep backup history
+- `backup_include_archived`: Whether to backup archived events
+- `backup_exclude_patterns`: File patterns to exclude
+
+### API Endpoints
+- `GET /api/admin/backup/config` - Get current configuration
+- `PUT /api/admin/backup/config` - Update configuration
+- `GET /api/admin/backup/status` - Get backup status and history
+- `POST /api/admin/backup/run` - Trigger manual backup
+- `POST /api/admin/backup/test-connection` - Test destination connectivity
+
+### Testing
+Run backup service test: `npm run test-backup`
+
+### Database Tables
+- `backup_runs`: Tracks each backup execution with statistics
+- `backup_file_states`: Stores file checksums for change detection
+
 ## Success Metrics (from PRD)
 - Time to generate gallery: <2 minutes
 - Guest satisfaction: >90%
 - System uptime: 99.9%
 - Email delivery rate: >98%
-- Successful archiving: 100%
+- Successful archiving: 100%
+
+## Documentation & Development Practices
+
+### Documentation Guidelines:
+- **NEVER create new documentation files for simple tasks**
+- **ALWAYS update existing documentation (like this CLAUDE.md)**
+- Only create new .md files when explicitly requested
+- Avoid creating temporary scripts for one-off tasks
+
+### Development Best Practices:
+- Test all changes thoroughly in local environment first
+- Use version control for all changes
+- Keep commits atomic and well-described
+- Review impact on all integrated services
+- Consider backward compatibility
+- Update tests when changing functionality
+
+### Production Deployment Checklist:
+- [ ] All tests passing locally
+- [ ] Linting and type checks pass
+- [ ] Database migrations tested with rollback plan
+- [ ] Environment variables documented
+- [ ] Backup strategy confirmed
+- [ ] Monitoring alerts configured
+- [ ] Rollback procedure documented
+- [ ] Stakeholders notified of maintenance window

-# Production Deployment Guide
-
-This guide explains how to deploy PicPeak in production behind a reverse proxy like Traefik.
-
-## Environment Configuration
-
-### Frontend Configuration
-
-For production deployment behind a reverse proxy (Traefik, Nginx, etc.), the frontend should use relative URLs to automatically inherit the protocol (HTTPS) and domain.
-
-1. Copy the production environment template:
-   ```bash
-   cp frontend/.env.production.example frontend/.env.production
-   ```
-
-2. Set the API URL to use relative path:
-   ```env
-   # frontend/.env.production
-   VITE_API_URL=/api
-   ```
-
-   This ensures all API calls will use the same domain and protocol as the frontend.
-
-### Backend Configuration
-
-Ensure your backend `.env` file has the correct URLs:
-```env
-# backend/.env
-FRONTEND_URL=https://yourdomain.com
-ADMIN_URL=https://yourdomain.com
-```
-
-## Docker Compose Production
-
-When using Docker Compose in production:
-
-1. Build with production environment:
-   ```bash
-   docker-compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml build --build-arg NODE_ENV=production
-   ```
-
-2. The frontend nginx configuration already includes proper proxy settings for:
-   - `/api` → Backend API
-   - `/photos` → Protected photo access
-   - `/thumbnails` → Thumbnail images
-   - `/uploads` → Public uploads (logos, favicons)
-
-## Traefik Configuration
-
-Example Traefik labels for docker-compose:
-
-```yaml
-services:
-  frontend:
-    labels:
-      - "traefik.enable=true"
-      - "traefik.http.routers.picpeak.rule=Host(`yourdomain.com`)"
-      - "traefik.http.routers.picpeak.entrypoints=websecure"
-      - "traefik.http.routers.picpeak.tls.certresolver=letsencrypt"
-      - "traefik.http.services.picpeak.loadbalancer.server.port=80"
-```
-
-## Important Notes
-
-1. **No Hardcoded URLs**: The application uses environment variables with relative URL fallbacks, making it production-ready.
-
-2. **HTTPS Only**: When `VITE_API_URL=/api`, all requests will use the same protocol as the page (HTTPS in production).
-
-3. **CORS Configuration**: The backend CORS is configured to accept requests from the URLs specified in `FRONTEND_URL` and `ADMIN_URL`.
-
-4. **Static Assets**: All static assets (photos, thumbnails, uploads) are served through the nginx proxy, inheriting authentication headers.
-
-## Verification
-
-After deployment, verify:
-
-1. Check browser console for any localhost URLs (there should be none)
-2. Verify all API calls use HTTPS
-3. Check that images load correctly with authentication
-4. Test favicon and logo display
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-If you see console errors about localhost:
-
-1. Ensure `VITE_API_URL=/api` in frontend environment
-2. Clear browser cache
-3. Rebuild frontend with production environment:
-   ```bash
-   cd frontend
-   npm run build
-   ```
-
-If images don't load:
-
-1. Check that nginx proxy locations are configured
-2. Verify authentication tokens are being sent
-3. Check backend logs for authentication errors

+## Frontend Configuration
+
+For production deployment behind a reverse proxy:
+
+### Frontend Environment
+```bash
+# frontend/.env.production
+VITE_API_URL=/api  # Uses relative path for reverse proxy
+
+# Optional: Umami fallback (primary config via Admin UI)
+# VITE_UMAMI_URL=https://analytics.yourdomain.com
+# VITE_UMAMI_WEBSITE_ID=your-website-id
+```
+
+This ensures all API calls use the same domain/protocol as the frontend.
+
+### Nginx Proxy Configuration
+
+The frontend nginx configuration already includes proper proxy settings for:
+- `/api` → Backend API
+- `/photos` → Protected photo access
+- `/thumbnails` → Thumbnail images
+- `/uploads` → Public uploads (logos, favicons)
+
+All static assets are served through the nginx proxy, inheriting authentication headers.

+# Enhanced Backup System Test Suite
+
+This directory contains comprehensive tests for the enhanced backup system with S3 support.
+
+## Test Structure
+
+### Unit Tests
+- `services/backupService.enhanced.test.js` - Unit tests for the enhanced backup service
+  - Configuration management
+  - S3 backup functionality
+  - Manifest generation
+  - Error handling and recovery
+  - Backward compatibility (local and rsync)
+  - Service lifecycle management
+
+### Integration Tests
+- `integration/backup-s3.test.js` - Integration tests for S3 backups
+  - Real S3/MinIO connection tests
+  - Full backup process with actual files
+  - Incremental backup verification
+  - Manifest storage and retrieval
+  - Error recovery scenarios
+
+### Manual Integration Test Script
+- `../scripts/test-backup-integration.js` - Comprehensive manual testing script
+  - Can test against MinIO, AWS S3, or any S3-compatible service
+  - Tests all backup types (S3, local, rsync)
+  - Performance testing with large files
+  - Detailed progress reporting
+
+## Running Tests
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+1. **For Unit Tests**: No special setup required, all dependencies are mocked.
+
+2. **For Integration Tests**: Requires a running S3-compatible service (MinIO recommended)
+   ```bash
+   # Start MinIO using Docker
+   docker run -d \
+     -p 9000:9000 \
+     -p 9001:9001 \
+     --name minio-test \
+     -e MINIO_ROOT_USER=minioadmin \
+     -e MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=minioadmin \
+     minio/minio server /data --console-address ":9001"
+   ```
+
+3. **Environment Variables** (for integration tests):
+   ```bash
+   # Optional - defaults work with local MinIO
+   export TEST_S3_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:9000
+   export TEST_S3_ACCESS_KEY=minioadmin
+   export TEST_S3_SECRET_KEY=minioadmin
+   
+   # Skip S3 tests if no S3 service available
+   export SKIP_S3_TESTS=true
+   ```
+
+### Running Unit Tests
+
+```bash
+# Run all backup service tests
+npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js
+
+# Run specific test suite
+npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js -t "S3 Backup Functionality"
+
+# Run with coverage
+npm test -- --coverage __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js
+```
+
+### Running Integration Tests
+
+```bash
+# Ensure MinIO is running first!
+
+# Run S3 integration tests
+npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js
+
+# Run with verbose output
+npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js --verbose
+
+# Skip S3 tests if needed
+SKIP_S3_TESTS=true npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js
+```
+
+### Running Manual Integration Tests
+
+```bash
+# Test with local MinIO (default)
+node scripts/test-backup-integration.js
+
+# Test with AWS S3
+node scripts/test-backup-integration.js \
+  --endpoint https://s3.amazonaws.com \
+  --access-key YOUR_ACCESS_KEY \
+  --secret-key YOUR_SECRET_KEY \
+  --bucket your-test-bucket
+
+# Test local backup
+node scripts/test-backup-integration.js --type local
+
+# Test with cleanup after completion
+node scripts/test-backup-integration.js --cleanup
+
+# Verbose output
+node scripts/test-backup-integration.js --verbose
+```
+
+## Test Coverage
+
+The test suite covers:
+
+### Configuration
+- ✅ Database configuration retrieval
+- ✅ JSON parsing and error handling
+- ✅ Configuration validation
+- ✅ Required field validation
+
+### S3 Functionality
+- ✅ S3 client initialization
+- ✅ Connection testing
+- ✅ File upload with progress tracking
+- ✅ Large file handling (multipart upload)
+- ✅ Metadata and custom headers
+- ✅ Error handling and retries
+
+### Backup Process
+- ✅ Full backup execution
+- ✅ Incremental backup (changed files only)
+- ✅ File checksum calculation and comparison
+- ✅ Database backup inclusion
+- ✅ Archive inclusion toggle
+- ✅ File size limits
+
+### Manifest Generation
+- ✅ Full manifest generation
+- ✅ Incremental manifest with parent reference
+- ✅ JSON and YAML format support
+- ✅ Manifest validation
+- ✅ S3 manifest storage and retrieval
+- ✅ Checksum verification
+
+### Error Handling
+- ✅ S3 connection failures
+- ✅ File read errors
+- ✅ Individual file failure recovery
+- ✅ Retry logic with exponential backoff
+- ✅ Email notifications on failure
+- ✅ Concurrent backup prevention
+
+### Backward Compatibility
+- ✅ Local directory backup
+- ✅ Rsync backup
+- ✅ Existing manifest format support
+
+### Service Management
+- ✅ Cron job scheduling
+- ✅ Service start/stop
+- ✅ Manual backup triggering
+- ✅ Backup history and status
+
+## Mock Setup
+
+The unit tests use comprehensive mocking:
+
+```javascript
+// Database mocking
+jest.mock('../../src/database/db');
+
+// S3 client mocking
+jest.mock('../../src/services/storage/s3Storage');
+
+// File system mocking
+const mockFs = require('mock-fs');
+
+// Cron job mocking
+jest.mock('node-cron');
+```
+
+## CI/CD Integration
+
+To run tests in CI/CD pipeline:
+
+```yaml
+# Example GitHub Actions
+- name: Run Unit Tests
+  run: npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js
+
+- name: Start MinIO
+  run: |
+    docker run -d \
+      -p 9000:9000 \
+      --name minio-test \
+      -e MINIO_ROOT_USER=minioadmin \
+      -e MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=minioadmin \
+      minio/minio server /data
+
+- name: Run Integration Tests
+  run: npm test -- __tests__/integration/backup-s3.test.js
+```
+
+## Debugging Tests
+
+```bash
+# Run tests in debug mode
+node --inspect-brk ./node_modules/.bin/jest __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js
+
+# Run single test with console output
+npm test -- __tests__/services/backupService.enhanced.test.js -t "should perform S3 backup" --verbose
+```
+
+## Performance Considerations
+
+- Integration tests create real files and S3 objects
+- Each test run creates a unique S3 bucket to avoid conflicts
+- Cleanup is automatic but can be disabled for debugging
+- Large file tests (10MB+) are included but can be slow
+
+## Adding New Tests
+
+When adding new backup features:
+
+1. Add unit tests to `backupService.enhanced.test.js`
+2. Add integration tests to `backup-s3.test.js` if S3-specific
+3. Update manual test script for comprehensive testing
+4. Ensure mocks are properly configured
+5. Document any new environment requirements

+### Rate Limiting
+When rate limits are exceeded, the following is logged:
+```json
+{
+  "timestamp": "2024-01-18 14:23:45.123",
+  "level": "warn",

+### Authentication Failures
+
+#### Admin Login Failures
+- Tracked in `login_attempts` table
+- Logged with: IP address, username, user agent, timestamp
+- Account lockout after 5 failures in 15 minutes
+
+#### Gallery Password Failures
+- Tracked in `access_logs` table with action='login_fail'
+- Logged with: event_id, IP address, user agent
+- Gallery lockout after 5 failures in 15 minutes
+
+### JWT Validation Failures
+```json
+{
+  "timestamp": "2024-01-18 14:23:45.123",
+  "level": "warn",
+  "message": "JWT validation failed",
+  "ip": "192.168.1.1",

+  "method": "GET",
+  "userAgent": "Mozilla/5.0...",
+  "error": "TokenExpiredError",
+  "message": "jwt expired"
+}
+```
+
+### Suspicious Activity
+- Multiple IPs attempting login for same account
+- Token usage from different IP than issued
+- Token usage after password change
+- Revoked token usage attempts
+
+## Configuration Settings
+
+All rate limiting settings are configurable via the admin panel:
+
+| Setting | Default | Range | Description |
+|---------|---------|-------|-------------|
+| rate_limit_enabled | true | - | Enable/disable rate limiting |
+| rate_limit_window_minutes | 15 | 1-60 | Time window for rate limit |
+| rate_limit_max_requests | 1000 | 10-10000 | Max requests for general endpoints |
+| rate_limit_auth_max_requests | 5 | 1-100 | Max requests for auth endpoints |
+| rate_limit_skip_authenticated | true | - | Skip rate limit for authenticated requests |
+| rate_limit_public_endpoints_only | false | - | Only rate limit public endpoints |
+
+## Database Tables
+
+### login_attempts
+```sql
+- id
+- username
+- ip_address
+- user_agent
+- success (boolean)
+- created_at
+```
+
+### access_logs
+```sql
+- id
+- event_id
+- ip_address
+- user_agent
+- action ('view', 'download', 'login_success', 'login_fail')
+- photo_id (nullable)
+- created_at
+```
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+- `LOG_LEVEL`: Set logging level (default: 'info')
+- `LOG_TO_CONSOLE`: Enable console logging in production (default: false)
+
+## Monitoring Recommendations
+
+1. **Set up alerts for:**
+   - Rate limit exceeded events (possible DDoS)
+   - Multiple failed login attempts from same IP
+   - Account lockout events
+   - JWT validation failures spike
+
+2. **Regular review:**
+   - Check security.log for patterns
+   - Review login_attempts table for brute force attempts
+   - Monitor access_logs for suspicious gallery access patterns
+
+3. **Log analysis tools:**
+   - Use log aggregation tools (ELK stack, Splunk)
+   - Set up dashboards for security metrics
+   - Configure alerts for threshold breaches
+
+## Production Deployment Notes
+
+1. Ensure logs directory has proper permissions
+2. Set up log rotation outside of application if needed
+3. Consider shipping logs to centralized logging service
+4. Monitor disk space for log files
+5. Set `LOG_TO_CONSOLE=true` for container deployments
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+1. Never log sensitive data (passwords, tokens)
+2. Use generic error messages to prevent user enumeration
+3. Clean up old login attempts regularly (7 days retention)
+4. Monitor for unusual patterns in real-time
+5. Keep rate limit settings appropriate for your usage

-# Storage Management Scripts
-
-## check-storage.js
-
-Checks the storage directory structure and verifies that photo files exist.
-
-### Usage:
-```bash
-# Check overall storage structure
-node scripts/check-storage.js
-
-# Check specific event
-node scripts/check-storage.js wedding-test-gallery-2025-07-14-1
-```
-
-### What it checks:
-- Storage directory structure and permissions
-- Event directories
-- Photo files existence
-- Thumbnail files existence
-- Database vs filesystem consistency
-
-## regenerate-thumbnails.js
-
-Regenerates missing thumbnails for photos in the database.
-
-### Usage:
-```bash
-# Regenerate all missing thumbnails
-node scripts/regenerate-thumbnails.js
-
-# Regenerate thumbnails for specific event (by ID)
-node scripts/regenerate-thumbnails.js 2
-```
-
-### What it does:
-- Scans photos in database
-- Checks if thumbnails exist
-- Generates missing thumbnails using Sharp
-- Updates database with thumbnail paths
-- Reports success/error statistics
-
-### Prerequisites:
-- Node.js environment
-- Database access
-- Write permissions to storage directory
-- Sharp library installed
-
-## Production Usage
-
-On your production server:
-
-1. First, check the storage structure:
-   ```bash
-   cd /path/to/picpeak/backend
-   NODE_ENV=production node scripts/check-storage.js wedding-test-gallery-2025-07-14-1
-   ```
-
-2. If thumbnails are missing, regenerate them:
-   ```bash
-   NODE_ENV=production node scripts/regenerate-thumbnails.js 2
-   ```
-
-Note: Replace `2` with the actual event ID from your database.
-
-## cleanup-thumbnails.js
-
-Cleans up temporary and orphaned thumbnail files.
-
-### Usage:
-```bash
-# Dry run - see what would be deleted
-node scripts/cleanup-thumbnails.js --dry-run
-
-# Actually delete orphaned thumbnails
-node scripts/cleanup-thumbnails.js
-```
-
-### What it does:
-- Identifies temporary thumbnails (thumb_temp_*)
-- Finds orphaned thumbnails not linked to any photo
-- Removes unnecessary files to free up space
-- Reports statistics on cleanup
-
-## diagnose-thumbnails.js
-
-Diagnoses why thumbnails might not be showing for a specific event.
-
-### Usage:
-```bash
-node scripts/diagnose-thumbnails.js 2
-```
-
-### What it checks:
-- Thumbnail paths in database vs filesystem
-- Path format inconsistencies
-- Missing thumbnail files
-- Provides SQL to fix path issues
-
-### Common Issues:
-1. **Path mismatch**: Database has wrong thumbnail path format
-2. **Missing files**: Thumbnails were never generated
-3. **Permission issues**: Web server can't read thumbnail files

+# Comprehensive Backup & Restore Implementation Plan
+
+## Introduction
+
+This plan extends the existing backup system to include full database backups, S3/MinIO support, intelligent change detection, and complete restore functionality. The system will create versioned, encrypted backups with manifests for easy restoration while minimizing storage usage through incremental backups and smart scheduling.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 1: Enhanced Database Schema & Core Infrastructure
+
+### Task 1.1: Create Enhanced Database Migration
+**File:** `backend/migrations/030_enhance_backup_system.js`  
+**Purpose:** Add tables for database backups, restore operations, and backup manifests
+
+```sql
+-- backup_manifests table
+- id (primary key)
+- backup_run_id (FK to backup_runs)
+- manifest_version (e.g., "1.0.0")
+- created_at
+- database_dump_path
+- database_checksum
+- files_manifest (JSON with all file paths/checksums)
+- metadata (JSON with system info, versions, etc.)
+
+-- restore_operations table
+- id (primary key)
+- started_at
+- completed_at
+- status (pending, running, completed, failed)
+- restore_type (full, partial, database_only, files_only)
+- source_backup_id (FK to backup_runs)
+- restored_by (FK to admin_users)
+- error_message
+- restore_log (detailed log)
+
+-- backup_change_tracking table
+- id (primary key)
+- table_name
+- last_change_timestamp
+- row_count
+- checksum
+- last_backed_up
+```

+### Critical Path (Must Have):
+1. S3 Storage Adapter (Task 2.2)
+2. Database Backup Service (Task 3.1)
+3. Enhanced Backup Service (Task 4.1)
+4. Basic Restore Service (Task 5.1)
+5. Admin API Extensions (Task 6.1)
+6. Backup Test Suite (Task 10.1)
+
+### High Priority (Should Have):
+1. Backup Manifest Generator (Task 4.2)
+2. Change Detection (Task 3.2)
+3. Frontend Backup Page (Task 7.1)
+4. Encryption Implementation (Task 9.1)
+5. Restore Wizard (Task 7.3)
+
+### Nice to Have:
+1. Incremental Backups (Task 4.3)
+2. Smart Scheduling (Task 8.1)
+3. Advanced Monitoring (Task 8.2)
+4. MinIO Compatibility (Task 2.3)
+
+---
+
+## Configuration Examples
+
+### S3 Configuration:
+```javascript
+{
+  backup_destination_type: "s3",
+  backup_s3_endpoint: "https://s3.amazonaws.com",
+  backup_s3_bucket: "wedding-backups",
+  backup_s3_access_key: "AKIA...",
+  backup_s3_secret_key: "secret",
+  backup_s3_region: "us-east-1",
+  backup_s3_use_ssl: true,
+  backup_s3_path_style: false
+}
+```
+
+### MinIO Configuration:
+```javascript
+{
+  backup_destination_type: "s3",
+  backup_s3_endpoint: "https://minio.example.com:9000",
+  backup_s3_bucket: "picpeak-backups",
+  backup_s3_access_key: "minioadmin",
+  backup_s3_secret_key: "minioadmin",
+  backup_s3_region: "us-east-1",
+  backup_s3_use_ssl: true,
+  backup_s3_path_style: true // Required for MinIO
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices Implementation
+
+1. **Change Detection**: Use database triggers and file checksums to detect changes
+2. **Compression**: Always compress before encryption for better ratios
+3. **Chunking**: Split large backups into manageable chunks
+4. **Versioning**: Keep multiple backup versions with rotation
+5. **Validation**: Verify every backup immediately after creation
+6. **Monitoring**: Alert on backup failures within 5 minutes
+7. **Testing**: Perform monthly restore drills
+8. **Documentation**: Log every backup/restore operation with details
+
+---

+# Nginx Configuration Fix for Photo Authentication
+
+If photos and thumbnails are not loading in gallery view but work in admin, it's likely that the Authorization header is being stripped by nginx or another reverse proxy.
+
+## Common Issue
+
+The `Authorization` header is often not passed through by default in nginx proxy configurations.
+
+## Fix
+
+Add these lines to your nginx configuration for the PicPeak location block:
+
+```nginx
+location / {
+    proxy_pass http://localhost:3001;
+    
+    # Important: Pass the Authorization header
+    proxy_pass_header Authorization;
+    proxy_set_header Authorization $http_authorization;
+    
+    # Other standard proxy headers
+    proxy_set_header Host $host;
+    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
+    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
+}
+```
+
+## Alternative Fix Using Traefik
+
+If using Traefik, ensure headers are passed:
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  picpeak:
+    labels:
+      - "traefik.http.middlewares.picpeak-headers.headers.customrequestheaders.Authorization="
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+1. Check if Authorization header is reaching the backend:
+   ```bash
+   curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" https://picpeak.yourdomain.com/thumbnails/test.jpg -v
+   ```
+
+2. Check nginx logs to see if the header is present:
+   ```bash
+   tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log
+   ```
+
+## Docker Compose Fix
+
+If using docker-compose with nginx proxy, add:
+
+```yaml
+environment:
+  - NGINX_PROXY_PASS_HEADER=Authorization
+```
