Hi,
When downloading the plugin, will the web client fallback to HTTP if HTTPS doesnt work, provided I have added allowHttp=true in webclient.properties?
Say I have registered my plugin with https://127.0.0.1/abc.zip. Now when user logs into web client, it will try to download the plugin from this URL. if for some reason, the download fails, will it automatically try http://127.0.0.1/abc.zip?
The reason is that I noticied the below messages in the log. It reported that allowHttp=true is not set when the URL is actually a HTTPS URL (may be a thumbprint issue). But after adding allowHttp=true in webclient.properties and restarting the web client the plugin got downloaded successfully.
