I recently bought a dedicated ssl certificate with cloudflare. https://www.cloudflare.com/ssl/dedicated-certificates/
The certificate is active, however, the result test is as it follows:
curl -sv -o /dev/null https://www.mysite.com/ --resolve www.mysite.com:443:my.ip.num.ber
* Added www.mysite.com:443:my.ip.num.ber to DNS cache
* Hostname www.mysite.com was found in DNS cache
* Trying my.ip.num.ber...
* TCP_NODELAY set
* Connection failed
* connect to my.ip.num.ber port 443 failed: Operation timed out
* Failed to connect to www.mysite.com port 443: Operation timed out
* Closing connection 0
From cloudflare recommend me to open port 443 at my origin webserver/droplet. How can i do this? do i need anything else to be done?

Hi @musicos
Since you’re running Ubuntu, I’m guessing you might have setup the UFW firewall, so run this command to see if it’s active and allowing port 443:
But I don’t know how the dedicated certificate works on CloudFlare. I’m not sure if it’s required to have encrypted traffic between CloudFlare and your server - if it is, then you need to put the certificate on your web server as well. You should be able to see more in the control panel on CloudFlare - it should tell if it has connectivity with your server or not.
