Hello, I had the same issue on PVE 8.3.4. I see you are on 8.3.0. Only .OVA import is supported on these versions
I updated to 8.4.1. I'm now able to import ova, qcow2, raw, vmdk, img...
If you don't want to update, use SSH to transfer your file.
 
Don't think pve supports downloading compressed images. You have to download the file to your pc and extract it first (z-zip?) and the upload the qcow2 to pve. -> "wrong file extension"
