<p>I successfully added Fastly as a CDN for serving static content but theres one problem after enabling the CDN module:</p>
<p>File upload is not possible anylonger.</p>
<p>The following error occurs on file upload:<br>
InvalidArgumentException: The URI '//example.com/sites/default/files/2016-04/Scan.jpeg' is invalid. You must use a valid URI scheme. in Drupal\Core\Url::fromUri() (line 306 of /home/r0ea6/www/core/lib/Drupal/Core/Url.php).</p>
<p><strong>Steps to reproduce :</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>enable cdn, active it and set up any domain for testing, in this case (example.com) no js / css will be loaded but thats okay</li>
<li>create an article and upload a file, on upload click the upper error is shown.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Proposed resolution:</strong><br>
Only alter the file base path on view not on upload.</p>
