>
> When registering templates with CloudStack, it is necessary to provide a URL
> from which the template can be downloaded.
> CloudStack validates the format of these URLs, but it does so quite
> aggressively, sometimes rejecting URLs that are perfectly valid.
> In particular, CloudStack expects and requires the URL to carry a file
> extension that matches the expected template, eg. ".vhd" or ".vhd.gz". If the
> URL doesn't have such an extension, it will be rejected, even if it is a
> perfectly valid URL from which a VHD can be downloaded.
