TA_HOST configuration

  • Some users have reported, that they received an unexpected logout redirect, see https://github.com/tubearchivist/tubearchivist/issues/1203.
  • Solution is to make sure you specify protocol and port, exactly as documented: TA_HOST
  • This issue has probably surfaced with an Django version bump, assuming they fixed a validation issue there, even though they did not mark this as a breaking change.
  • Host name validation will probably be removed as a requirement, and optin in the future… To avoid the trouble…
