Load Balancer Endpoint HTTPS

What is the name of the domain?

cvtest.cc

What is the issue you’re encountering

Cannot seem to set HTTPS for the origin connection (but CAN set for the monitor). I feel like I’m missing something! Is it possible to do this? I need all origin connections to use HTTPS but they seem to be only using HTTP despite the monitor configuration.

From Cloudflare to the origin server you want HTTPS?
May I ask if:

  1. Your origin host does support HTTPS
  2. Is HTTPS configured to serve for your domain
  3. Are HTTPS ports open and available at origin host
  4. Are Cloudflare IP addresses allowlisted
    5 What SSL settings have you got selected under the SSL/TLS tab of Cloudflare dashboard for your domain name?

Regarding the Load Balancer, it would require an SSL certificate, is this the issue you’re having?

I’d not recommend trying to configure and use Flexible SSL due to the cause of more redirection loops and issues.

Hi Fritex, thanks for the response.

I ended up solving this - SSL mode was set to flexible, switching to Strict forced the HTTPS.

To answer the questions in case it helps someone else -

  1. Your origin host does support HTTPS - YES
  2. Is HTTPS configured to serve for your domain - YES
  3. Are HTTPS ports open and available at origin host - YES
  4. Are Cloudflare IP addresses allowlisted - YES
    5 What SSL settings have you got selected under the SSL/TLS tab of Cloudflare dashboard for your domain name? - FLEX. Switching to strict solved.
