Synology Photos, AirTrail and Dawarich each have a switch to trust a
self-signed certificate; Immich had none, so every request to such a
server failed with a bare "fetch failed" (#2475).
Immich gets the same switch, per user and off by default:
- users.immich_allow_insecure_tls (migration 243, column guarded) and a
settings row labelled with the existing skipSSLVerification string, so
no new translations. The settings card on desktop and phone draws it
from that row.
- Every request to the user's Immich (status, browse, search, asset info
and proxy, albums, upload) passes rejectUnauthorized from the switch.
Only 1 counts as on. A shared photo follows its owner's switch, since
it goes to the owner's server with the owner's key.
- Settings PUT and the connection test take allow_insecure_tls as a
boolean. Absent on a save keeps the stored choice, so an older client
cannot clear it; disconnecting turns it off again.
- A failed request names its cause, e.g. "fetch failed (self-signed
certificate)", instead of only the undici message.
- The upload mirror gets a timeout: the journey upload waits on it.
Fresh installs also never showed "Mirror journey photos to Immich on
upload": migration 112 added that row only where the Immich provider
already existed, and on a new database the seeds create it after the
migrations. The row is now in the seeds, and migration 243 adds it where
the provider exists without it.
Wiki: Photo-Providers.md documents the switch.
