Hi,

Have you installed ocurl?

[caf2022]

URI(/path/to/file.mp4) is a path, not a URL(http) maybe is this the problem, you need to specify a path of the file and not URL.

Sorry if I said nonsense.

I believe that you need to install the ocurl module that is used to implement http.* operators. Without this module, we have no support for HTTP requests.

Thanks, I was using a different ls image which didn't have ocurl, hence the issue. Once I switched to the official image I was good.
