apiVersion: traefik.io/v1alpha1
kind: Middleware
metadata:
name: bouncer
namespace: traefik
spec:
plugin:
bouncer:
CrowdsecLapiKey: api-key
Enabled: true
logLevel: DEBUG
crowdsecMode: live
crowdsecLapiHost: "crowdsec-service:8080"
I've also tried setting crowdsecLapiHost to just "crowdsec-service" and "http://crowdsec-service:8080", but the error persists.

I've confirmed that the crowdsec-service is available via HTTP at 10.105.37.20:8080 from other pods.

Is there a specific format for the crowdsecLapiHost or another way to configure the LAPI connection to avoid this URL validation error?

"That's an excellent point, thank you for clarifying! I believe the issue was that my crowdsecLapiHost value was already prefixed with the scheme, causing the http://http:// error.
