When I'm trying to obtain user IP address $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] it returns me server IP address instead. I'm using PHP in Apache.
What problem it could be? I'm using own VPS from digitalocean with LAMP in ubuntu 14.04

Well, I am eating my words now.
This is interesting.
Let try another:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
I am stumped, I will think about it. I have posted my phpinfo and yours.
Yours should also have 99.3.150.55 for _SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']
No, I highly doubt what you are saying is true. You are overlooking something.
If you are willing to give me a link, put this script on your Server:
I would like to go to that link and see your Servers IP address come up when I visit.
<?php
echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] ;
?>

1Not at all, I could not believe it. That is why I posted the pics as I am sure others will not believe it. I also up voted you to get rid of the minus. – Misunderstood Apr 15 '15 at 15:41

Ok. So the unnamed force is displaying user IP as server IP. Should I look the server side problem? And I'm not sure whe the problem should stand off. – Arnas Pečelis Apr 15 '15 at 15:47

Must be a bug, the latest stable version is PHP 5.6.7, you may want to try a newer version. – Misunderstood Apr 15 '15 at 15:52
