Gyrfalcon:
Nothing I did, but I appreciated that you dug up a possible solution for Erik. No idea if he went ahead and implemented it, though.

boolybooly:
If anyone is reading it seems to have broken again.

I have no idea why. Everything has stayed the same at my end.

Zap0:
Are you accessing over http or https?

Last Thread about this

boolybooly:
see below see above, Chrome Win10 switches randomly from being able to see images to not being able to see them without my doing anything, currently if I set the URL to http://~ it still loads https://

dont know why for sure but maybe its because Chrome responds to something serverside forcing HTTPS

on the HSTS preload checker site, pentarch.org currently gets a warning for unecessary HSTS header and two other error warnings which are related to not redirecting to HTTPS which is probably what we need but I wonder if the unecessary HSTS header might be triggering Chrome to go HTTPS, or something ?

I think there must have been a recent server adjustment of some kind which reverted it to how it was before whatever tweak made it work again, I havent done anything, am hoping it can be tweaked back

Neither did mine until a few days ago :( It automatically reverts to HTTPS whatever I do. Is OK in Incognito though if I remove the s.


Query of aurora2.pentarch.org in Chrome Domain Security Policy page for HSTS/PKP returns a list of policies including ...

"dynamic_upgrade_mode: FORCE_HTTPS"

Delete function does not work, meaning it is preloaded.

So if admins want to do something about that it looks like you can remove a domain from the preloading list. Scroll down for the removal form link.

hold your horses I seem to have just fixed it my end using a tip from stack overflow

the domain name is "pentarch.org"

I just entered that in the bottom field, exited Chrome via the three dots top right and restarted Chrome and bingo it worked!

PS I think what happened is I used an old bookmark with https in the URL and it rejigged Chrome back to https and borked pentarch.org, so now I am checking and editing my bookmarks to use http only for pentarch.org
