Discourse installed using official guide on github
Everything went well. but getting 502 error while accessing forum
tried checking rails production logs, and nothing I could see production_error or sidekiq logs
did see this with tail
Creating scope :open. Overwriting existing method Poll.open.

Can’t reach ‘/images/welcome/discourse-edit-post-animated.gif’ to get its dimension.
running discourse doctor says
Discourse version at forum.abc.com.au: NOT FOUND
tried disabling ssl and rebuild it, able to access the forum.
There must be problem with ssl, which I can’t figure out. While installing ssl connection to IP resolution succeeded
forum.abc.com.au:Verify error:CAA record for forum.abc.com.au prevents issuance
Before running discourse install script for sub domain we need to verify if main domain is having any CAA records and check the Certificate Authority if it’s not LetsEncrypt (In my case, main domain CAA is comodoca.com) , your letsencrypt certs for discourse won’t be issued
If you know a way to test for those records that requires no extra software, I’d consider having discourse-setup test for it, but I’ve never seen this before.
It’s a fair assumption that if you own a domain and know what CAA is to have been able to configure it that your understand the implications of let’s encrypt.
@pfaffman
dig caa {domain.tld} will return the record.
We want to first search if it returns any record
Then if returns whether the issue authority is other than letsencrypt.org
But this is very rare case. Not sure if we want to include that.
Correct. if I own a domain, I know what I’m doing with it.
I was helping somebody, this problem might have with hosts that are using cpanel and providing autossls with other providers such as comodo. They add bunch of records by default when they create a site (WordPress) in cpanel
Anyway, this is very rare case, have seen this for the first time
We see CAA crop up here occasionally, the default response we get when we point out that they’ve restricted certificate issuance for their entire domain is usually
This is interesting! ! need to check, I don’t know if we can lock certificate issuance on complete domain.
The restricted certificate issuance for entire domain, meaning all sub domains of it ?
If you set a CAA for @ (the domain) then that applies to both the top-level domain and subdomains, you can still add a specific CAA to subdomain.yourdomain.com for a service such as Let’s Encrypt which will restrict the scope for which LE can issue a certificate.
You can also specify issuewild instead of issue to permit a CA to issue a wildcard certificate, and iodef to associate an email address which will be notified of policy violations.
تخميني الأفضل هو أنك قمت بتعيين Cloudflare للوكالة وأعدت البناء عدة مرات للوصول إلى حدود معدل Let’s Encrypt والآن عليك الانتظار أسبوعًا للحصول على شهادة.
الحل السريع والبسيط هو اختيار نطاق فرعي جديد، وتعيين Cloudflare DNS فقط، وإعادة البناء. إذا نجح ذلك، فأنا على حق بشأن حدود المعدل ويمكنك إما التعود على النطاق الفرعي الجديد أو الانتظار أسبوعًا حتى يسمح لك بالمحاولة مرة أخرى.
