I followed this

http://ift.tt/1kQXOIa

and came up with a REST API. It works fine on my localhost but when I deploy it to an online server I get an error

"Api key is misssing"

but when I make requests that don't require authentication the API responds fine. below is the Authorization code

/**
* Adding Middle layer to authenticate every request
* Checking if the request has valid api key in the 'Authorization' header
*/
function authenticate(\Slim\Route $route) {
//Getting request headerstip
$headers = apache_request_headers();
$response = array();
$app = \Slim\Slim::getInstance();

//Verifying Authorization Header
if (isset($headers['Authorization'])) {
    $db = new DbHandler();

    //get the api key
    $api_key = $headers['Authorization'];
    if (isset($headers['category']) && is_numeric($headers['category'])) {

        global $category;
        $category = $headers['category'];

        if (isset($headers['info_id']) && is_numeric($headers['info_id'])) {

            global $info_id;

            $info_id = $headers['info_id'];
        }
    }
    //validating api key
    if (!$db->isValidApiKey($api_key)) {
        // api key is not present in users table
        $response["error"] = true;
        $response["message"] = "Access Denied. Invalid Api key";
        echoRespnse(401, $response);
        $app->stop();
    } else {
        global $user_id;
        // get user primary key id
        $user_id = $db->getUserId($api_key);
    }
} else {
    // api key is missing in header
    $response["error"] = true;
    $response["message"] = "Api key is misssing";
    echoRespnse(400, $response);
    $app->stop();
}
}
