NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID error for my site

Website, Application, Performance Security

I configured SSL for my Apache web server using Cloudflare Origin Certificate using the instructions at https://devanswers.co/configure-cloudflare-origin-ca-apache/

My site, https://gattufamily.com, is showing this error: NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID

My SSL/TLS encryption mode is Full (strict).

Your setup is all right, but you need to proxy your DNS records, as Origin certificates are only trusted by the proxies. Change them to :orange:.

DNS records have been proxied already.

Which nameservers are listed for that domain?

These should be the correct nameservers.

I’d switch both records to :grey:, wait a couple of minutes and switch back to :orange:.

If that still does not proxy them, I’d temporarily delete them, and then re-add.

Changing DNS records to :grey:, wait a couple of minutes and switch back to :orange: did the trick. Thank you!
