I’m trying to migrate from bitbucket server (self hosted) into Gitea (1.13.4-windows-4.0-amd65.exe).  
I get:  
migrate from server:7990 is not allowed: the host resolve to a private ip address ‘::1’  
Any ideas?

Hello  
i think server:7990 is nothing valid. Try to use the IP Address of the source

For security reasons (SSRF) migrations that are referencing internal IPs are disallowed by default. To enable please review the following setting: [Config Cheat Sheet - Docs](https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/config-cheat-sheet/#migrations-migrations) `ALLOW_LOCALNETWORKS`

Hi, I’m using a valid URL. I’ve also tried with ip address and in that case I get:  
“You are not allowed to import local repositories”  
In app.ini I have:  
[migration]  
ALLOW\_LOCALNETWORKS = true  
Also… I’m cloning from Bitbucket server. In new migration window I only see Git, GitHub, GitLab and Gitea so I’m trying with Git…

Instead of new migration from gitea, why not use git terminal and clone original repo and push to gitea?

Hi,

One missing “s” on [migrations] ?

[migrations]  
ALLOW\_LOCALNETWORKS = true
