hello @jsaathof, are you sure QuestDB sends the redirect? Isn't your browser being too keen on trying HTTPS on its own? Since I am unaware of QuestDB ever sending a redirect from HTTP to HTTPS.

It indeed seems to be browser related. However I tested both Safari and Firefox. When using a private window on either of the browsers the URL is not rewritten into a HTTPS URL. But I have not turned on HTTPS only mode in Firefox. Safari does not have this option.

One thing I did find is that QuestDB only supports TLS mode only for the enterprise version. Is there a reason for this?
