Media - Upload from URL only HTTPS allowed ?
markomdinic opened this issue · comments
Why on earth would you hardcode https enforcement for media upload URLs, especially when that https also requires a valid cert ? I don't know it that has always been the case, but now definitely is. If one wants to upload an ISO or a virtual disk image from a home machine, they need to have a web server fully set up for https, along with a valid certificate, which also implies a valid domain. Not every enthusiast out there is able or willing to go to such lenghts just to check out the project.
Shouldn't enforcement of such limiting factor be left for administrators to decide ?
This policy was introduced recently via v11.29.22. In a future we will replace this ISO download feature with one that allows to upload an ISO through the web browser. But if you want a configuration option to bypass this policy, please request it via https://gitlab.com/isard/isardvdi/-/issues/new.

FYI: I've created an specific feature to allow HTTP connections in the media import form.

I'm not an expert in IsardVDI because I've started to use it few months ago, but if it's useful, maybe I can take care of this and make a first PR to check by the main developers of the solution.
