Description

What version of Ajv are you using? Does the issue happen if you use the latest version? Happens with latest Version: 6.10.2

Ajv options object None

JSON Schema A

{
  "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
  "$id": "http://Test.com/Schemas/testSchema.json",
  "type": "object",
  "additionalProperties": false,
  "properties": {
    "test": {
      "type": "string"
    }
  }
}

JSON Schema B that references Schema A

{
  "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#",
  "$id": "https://Test.com/Schemas/testReference.json",
  "type": "object",
  "additionalProperties": false,
  "properties": {
    "testReference": {
      "$ref": "http://Test.com/Schemas/testSchema.json"
    }
  } 
}

Your code

...
const ajv = new Ajv({});
ajv.addSchema(schemaA);
const valid = ajv.validate(schemaB, data);
...

Validation result, data AFTER validation, error messages

can't resolve reference http://Test.com/Schemas/testSchema.json from id https://test.com/Schemas/testReference.json#

If the $id of schema is "http://Test.com/Schemas/testSchema.json", there is no possible valid reference to this $id. Neither "$ref": "http://Test.com/Schemas/testSchema.json" nor "http://test.com/Schemas/testSchema.json" does work. Both return "can't resolve reference ...".

What results did you expect? No Error. As the Domainname should not be case sensitive, any Definition and any Reference should work with any capital Letter.

Are you going to resolve the issue? No
