Cloudflare Causing 403 Error only when active

General
20

May I ask on which page or URL you get 403?
Is it the simple index.html?
Have you tried temporary removing or modifying your .htaccess file?
Are you using WordPress maybe?

If you temporary enable the “Pause Cloudflare for this site” option from the CF dashboard bottom-right corner, does it work then or still shows the same warning/error?
Does your Website work fine over HTTPS when Paused?

You could determine if the 403 is caused by Cloudfalre by using “Pause” option as follows:

  1. Use the “Pause Cloudflare on Site” option from the Overview tab for your domain at dash.cloudflare.com .
  2. The link is in the lower right corner of that page.
  3. Give it five minutes to take effect, then make sure site is working as expected with HTTPS.

Furthermore, I wonder if any of Cloudflare security & protection settings like Bot Fight Mode or Browser Integrity Check challenged or blocked the request :thinking:
