Redirect to https

Open Skeeve opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

I'm facing an issue with RESTClient every now and then. When accessing my REST API via http:// it sometimes gets redirected to https:// which fails to answer, as there is nothing listening fpr encrypted traffic.

Each time I have to go to Firefox's preferences and have to clear in the history the "Site Preferences". After that, RESTClient can correctly access my API.

Is there any way known I can avoid this? Is there a way RESTClient can ignore redirects?

It seems related to issue #108.

Could be, @benel. Otoh: As far as I know there is no redirect (from the server). But next time it happens I'll check with the console.

It is not related to #108.

I just tested and I cannot see (in Network Monitor of Firefox) any response from the server instructing RESTClient to use https. It's for sure somewhere in Firefox because when I go to Preferences > Privacy & Security > Clear History > Clear Site Preferences, it works again.
