Hi, This is probably a basic Question, but: I’m currently tring to install Discourse onto my Ubunut Server but I always get this Error: [2022-09-07 23_18_47-root@v2202001112289107119_ _var_discourse] My DNS Setting seem correct: [2022-09-07 23_21_59-DNS _ yayeet.org _ Ytimo.komentarhotlinne@gmail.com's Account _ Cloudflare – Ope] How do I fix this? Thanks in advance!

Disabling the Proxy (and waiting a while) should fix the problem :thinking: Because being behind Cloudflare Proxy doesn’t show the real IP of the server, so Discourse can’t verify correctly

Well I use Cloudflare to connect my Domain to the ip of the server

I see it, but the orange cloud must be disabled (gray) for the server’s subdomain (At least, at install time)

I try with the DNS Settings of my Domain Host

Ah, so cloudflare is fine unless I turn the orange cloud off?

[image] Port 443 isn't accessible via hostname Self-hosting Hello! I’ve recently decided to try to install Discourse.

I’ve done a LOT of searching around. I’ve removed proxies via CloudFlare and just flat out reinstalled it multiple times, changing the sub domains, even using the root domain at one point. Nothing has worked. I have confirmed every time that the domain IS poin…

[image] Timothee: cloudflare is fine unless I turn the orange cloud off? I think you mean one of these: It’s fine if you unless you turn the orange cloud on. It’s fine if you the the orange cloud off. It’s fine if you turn the gray cloud on.

It can take minutes, or even up to 24 hours for the change to take effect Just wait :slight_smile:

Ahh, ok. Thank you very much - I’ll wait :slight_smile:
