Generate short URL, seem to not respect server.basePath setting.

[jakommo]

Generate short URL doesn't work and throws Url Shortener: Error 404 Not Found: undefined if running behind a proxy and with a basePath other than /.

Steps to reproduce:

kibana.yml: server.basePath: "/kibana4"

Apache 2

<VirtualHost 172.17.0.5:80> 

ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/test-error_log 
TransferLog /var/log/apache2/test-access_log 

ProxyRequests On 
ProxyPass /kibana4/ http://127.0.0.1:5601/ connectiontimeout=60 timeout=300 
ProxyPassReverse /kibana4/ http://127.0.0.1:5601/ 
<Proxy *> 
Order deny,allow 
Allow from all 
</Proxy> 
</VirtualHost>

Clicking on Generate short URL in a dashboard results in:

...
172.17.0.1 - - [05/Feb/2016:11:36:26 +0000] "POST /kibana4/elasticsearch/_msearch?timeout=0&ignore_unavailable=true&preference=1454672173040 HTTP/1.1" 200 203
172.17.0.1 - - [05/Feb/2016:11:36:44 +0000] "POST /shorten HTTP/1.1" 404 280

All the other operations seem to work fine, only /shorten does not use the /kibana4/ basePath.

Running the same apache config with ProxyPass / instead of ProxyPass /kibana4/ fixes this.

I just tried 4.4.2 and while a URL is generated, the eventual result appears to be wrong:

https://example.com/office/kibana/ is the base URL. Shortened links look like https://example.com:443/office/kibana/goto/6c3ca36b4d95d110efdff1ca8c668e8a and eventually resolve into https://example.com/office/kibanahttps://example.com/office/kibana/app/kibana.

We are seeing this as well with 4.4.2. Reopening.

For example, if i paste in a URL such as this:

https://ves-kibana-test.ebiz.site.com:443/vapews/goto/66e3a8b5da312edfe99cf4d2cee283f4

It loads and then redirects into this:

https://ves-kibana-test.ebiz.site.com/vapewshttps://ves-kibana-test.ebiz.site.com/vapews/app/kibana#/dashboard/CMIS-Dashboard?_g=(refreshInterval:(display:Off,pause:!f,value:0),time:(from:now-15m,mode:quick,to:now))&_a=(filters:!(),options:(darkTheme:!f),panels:!((col:1,id:idname,panelIndex:1,row:1,size_x:8,size_y:4,type:visualization),(col:9,id:idname,panelIndex:2,row:1,size_x:4,size_y:4,type:visua...

@jbudz this seems to still be occurring, can you take a look at it?
