File listing not displayed with local header.

What it says on the tin, pretty much. When using fancyindex_header filename local;, the page never includes a file listing.

Confirmed on v0.5.1 with nginx 1.18.0; the header and footer display when using fancyindex_header and fancyindex_footer set as local the page lacks the actual listing. Using subrequest still works, though.

Bump.
Im using nginx-auth-ldap module as well
If i use subrequest. This error appears #82
If i use local, my website actually loads but no files gets listed

Using v0.5.2 fancyindex and nginx 1.18.0

Same problem here. Looks like this two modules does not work together well.

It seems like the actual issue is that you cannot use local for both header and footer (for some reason). While researching the fancyindex module and themes, I stumbled upon this weird but apparently functional woraround: https://gitlab.com/Emeraude/nginx-fancyindex-theme/-/blob/e84613d8be139678e7193f90a09dd53d586c1ddf/theme.conf#L4

The relevant lines:

fancyindex_header /etc/nginx/themes/enhanceddefault/header.html local;
fancyindex_footer ../../../../../../../../../../etc/nginx/themes/enhanceddefault/footer.html;
