Cannot establish HTTPS connection to subdomain that's using a page rule

What is the name of the domain?

connect.andrewormerod.com

What is the error message?

This site can’t provide a secure connection - uses an unsupported protocol. ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH Unsupported protocol The client and server don’t support a common SSL protocol version or cipher suite.

What is the issue you’re encountering

Subdomain (connect.) will not load

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

  • DNS A record for subdomain is proxied and set to IP 192.0.2.1
  • SSL is set to always use HTTPS
  • Page rule forwards “connect.andrewormerod.com/*” with status code 302 to an https URL

Sorry I couldn’t put this all in one post - I’m a new user on the forum so I’m restricted!

Could you check whether Universal SSL is enabled or disabled in your Cloudflare settings?

Also, have you been issued a Universal SSL certificate?

Yes - Universal is on - and… of course… it is now working!

I think maybe it just took a few hours for the universal certificate to be fully verified and I was being impatient (and worrying in case the cause was user error!)
