Siteurl does not accept .local-domains

Hello,

we use rocket.chat since years on a local installation. For our installation we use a rocket-chat.company.local Domain.

It looks like, that with version 7.0.0 .local domains aren’t accepted anymore

Fehler: cannot perform the following tasks:
- Den Konfigurationshook von Snap "rocketchat-server" ausführen (run hook "configure": [ERROR] "https://rocket-chat.company.local/" is not a valid url)

Does this have a reason? Is there a way to get this running again? Maybe we can change the url directly somewhere in a configuration file? Under the client-settings it is no problem to define the url to the https://rocket-chat.company.local/ But than there is a mismatch between the snap-configuration (snap get rocketchat-server siteurl) and the GUI.

Thank you and best,
Johannes

It will help if you give us some deployment details.

Licence type, number of users, reverse proxy etc.

Note that airgapped is no longer supported on CE.

It runs under the community licence with ~100 users.
The server has a permanent connection to the internet - so airgapped shouldn’t be an issue.
But the user clients only running local to the reverse proxy (apache, on the same host). The proxy has a local certificate (certified by our company CA) to allow “approved” https-connections.

Is there a way to define the siteurl without using the snap set rocketchat-server siteurl=https://rocket-chat.company.local? Or wouldn’t this change something, because the verification is done elsewhere?
