installing plugins over https from admin interface fails

[razr.world]

the browser refuses to serve the insecure request to the nodebb plugin site, so the installation of a plugin fails from the admin interface.

a solution could be to simply add a proxy route to nodebb that will proxy the request to the nodebb plugin site.

Can you attach a copy of the error? Our package manager uses SSL so it shouldn't be making an http call...

would appear something is amiss with the plugin site

[julian]

@razr-world Hm, that's quite odd, because I can reach the site just fine from here...

Are you using a VPN or some sort of internet filtering tool?

[razr.world]

@julian no vpn, but several filtering extensions:

https everywhere, ad block plus and ghostery

[julian]

... just a thought, does it work if you turn all of those things off?

I have the exact same issue here, on console have the following issue:

Error parsing plugins : Hostname/IP doesn't match certificate's altnames: "Host: packages.nodebb.org. is not in the cert's altnames: DNS:[domain].com, DNS:www.[domain].com"
