Connection error when retrieve files on S3 disk (MinIO) using HTTPS domain

[yeondevelope]

Issue description

I'm having a connection error when I trying to connect to a MinIO (S3) server over HTTPS, It just happens with HTTPS (using a domain name) because when I use HTTP (with IP address) it works fine. Let me give you an example of what I mean.

// config/filesystems.php
'custom-minio-s3-disk' => [
  'driver' => 's3',
  'key' => env('CUSTOM_ACCESS_KEY'),
  'secret' => env('CUSTOM_SECRET_KEY'),
  'region' => 'us-east-1',
  'bucket' => env('CUSTOM_BUCKET'),
  // I skip using 'url' because with it or without it
  'endpoint' => env('CUSTOM_ENDPOINT'),
  'use_path_style_endpoint' => true,
  'throw' => false,
  'report' => false
]

// .env
CUSTOM_KEY=...
CUSTOM_SECRET_KEY=...
CUSTOM_BUCKET=bucket-name
CUSTOM_ENDPOINT=https://minio.mydomain.com # Using HTTPS

When I trying to access using HTTPS https://minio.mydomain.com I get errors when retrieving files like:

• Unable to check existence, when just trying to validate the existence of the file in the bucket
• Unable to retrieve the file_size for file at location when file is already uploaded to the livewire's livewire-tmp

But magically when using just HTTP http://192.168..:9000 the files can be retrieved and uploaded.

I don't know if It's something with my filesystem.php disk configuration or something else. At first glance I thought it was because of my use_path_style_endpoint but I change it to true, and it still not working. I've already did a test request using postman and it perfectly works with the key and secret credentials, and using a domain (https://minio.mydomain.com/bucket-name/image.png) with SSL certificates and it works fine.

Partial (and insecure) solution

As I've alredy try using Minio (S3) disk with a domain name, and a valid Cloudflared SSL certificate (like https://minio.mydomain.com/bucket-name/...), I get constantly error messages for JUST retrieving files and NOT for uploading files.

So I've decide to use OpenSSL certificates, and added to MinIO to serve as HTTPS with a local IP address (https://192.168..:9000) instead of the domain (which for sure will make a security gap if the app is served in a reverse proxy like Cloudflared Tunnel), but will work for now.

Resume

// config/filesystems.php
'custom-minio-s3-disk' => [
  # Configurations added
  'ssl.certificate_verification' => false, # Needed to skip console connection refuse
  'http' = [ 'verify' => false ],
]

// .env
CUSTOM_KEY=...
CUSTOM_SECRET_KEY=...
CUSTOM_BUCKET=bucket-name
CUSTOM_ENDPOINT=https://192.168..:9000 # Using HTTPS with a OpenSSL Certificate

Steps To Reproduce

Livewire's use case

// e.g. Component to upload a file using livewire
// Livewire's component basic structure
use Livewire\WithFileUploads;
new class extends Components {
  use Livewire\WithFileUploads;
  public $photo;
  public function save(){
    $this->validate();
    $this->photo->storeAs('', 'file-name.png', 'custom-minio-s3-disk');
  }
}
<div>
  <form wire:submit="save">
    @csrf
    <input type="file" wire:model="photo">
  </form>
</div>

// config/livewire.php
return [
  // ...
  'temporary_file_upload' => [
    'disk' => 'custom-minio-s3-disk'
  ],
  // ...
];

Laravel's use case

// e.g. Retrieve a file
// Controller structrure
class ImageRetrieve extends Controller
{
    public function showImage($imageName)
    {
        if (!Storage::disk('custom-minio-s3-disk')->exists($imageName)){
            abort(404);
        }
        $fileContent = Storage::disk('custom-minio-s3-disk')->get($imageName);

        $mimeType = Storage::disk('custom-minio-s3-disk')->mimeType($imageName);

        return Response::make($fileContent, 200, [
            'Content-Type' => $mimeType,
        ]);

    }
}

I guess there's some good reason for this error to happen. I would really appreciate your help
