Hi
I was following a guide https://devanswers.co/configure-cloudflare-origin-ca-apache/ for this process as was relitavly uptodate and couldn’t find anything on DO’s area i did find a Nginx one but since i installed this from a template (wordpress) it wasn’t much use
Anywho i followed the guide using the chmod https://scriptstown.com/how-to-setup-cloudflare-ssl-and-configure-origin-certificate-for-apache/
The below is my /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
UseCanonicalName On
<VirtualHost *:443> ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
ServerName website.site
ServerAlias www.website.site
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
<Directory /var/www/html/>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
SSLCertificateFile /etc/cloudflare/websites.site.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/cloudflare/websites.site.key
</VirtualHost>
I checked the syntax no errors i restarted apache set cloudflare a and aaaa records to the server IP loged into wordpress installed a ssh tool and now i get a cloudflare error 525 handshake error for the host so i know somthing isn’t quite right just to much of a n00b in cirtificates to identify where i messed up.
Any help is apreciated

Hello there,
Did you run any tests using a tool like SSL Labs? You can check it here:
The tool performs a deep analysis of the configuration of any SSL web server which can be helpful to identify any errors.
