Problems with the redirection

Hello,

I experienced some problem with the redirection on the piratebox home page.
I tried on different OS (Windows 10, Android, Chrome OS, MacOS, iOS, and Kali Linux) to access to the piratebox. On Windows, Mac, Kali and Android, I just had to type the url

Language: PHP
piratebox.lan

On iOS and Chrome OS nothing is working, I can type the url and it still not working.
And this happen after I modified the url for another and after I added some pages.
Do anyone have a solution?

Thanks!

Hi,
iOS and chrome are most likely adding an implicit https in front of the URL.
So, you might try

Language: PHP
http://piratebox.lan

Those https-configurations will become more and more common.
Maybe it would be a good idea to ship a LetsEncrypt certificate with one
of the next PirateBox versions.

this happens if you activate HTTPS on PirateBox. IOS devices do deny all access to such a page where the certificate does not match the url (and is self signed).

Delivering let’s encrypt certs mean, that you have to prepare new images very 3 months. If somebody pays me a bunch of money, I’ll do that... but it is unrealistic in a one person project.

Did you try to use such a cert on your PirateBox? What is your experience about that? Can you prove me wrong?
