Hey @hrsetyono ,

Ideally, the ‘Full’ encryption method should be working just fine if the SSL configuration on your web server is fine as well.

Could you answer some quick questions in order for me, to try and give a suggestion:

-How did you link your domain to Cloudflare?(in your domain registrar you added the Cloudflare nameservers, in the CloudFlare dashboard you pointed your domain to your droplet IP?)

-Could you give me your Nginx configuration?(did you configured it to always redirect to 443?)

-What exact errors are you facing? It could be a good idea to check the Nginx logs and see if you can extract something from there as well.

I’ll be waiting for your response and let’s hope we work this out. :)

Best regards,

Hi @denislavgavrilov,

Thank you for your reply.

-How did you link your domain to Cloudflare?(in your domain registrar you added the Cloudflare nameservers, in the CloudFlare dashboard you pointed your domain to your droplet IP?)

I changed my Nameserver to cloudflare to add it. Then I add an A record pointing to the droplet’s IP address

-Could you give me your Nginx configuration?(did you configured it to always redirect to 443?)

I follow the official tutorial for my nginx setup:

• LEMP tutorial
• WordPress in LEMP tutorial

The setup is:

server {
  listen 443;
  root /home/myname/wp;
  index index.php index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;
  server_name lab.wptips.dev;

  location / {
    #try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
  }

  location ~ \.php$ {
    include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
    fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;
  }

  location ~ /\.ht {
    deny all;
  }

  location = /favicon.ico { log_not_found off; access_log off; }
  location = /robots.txt { log_not_found off; access_log off; allow all; }
  location ~* \.(css|gif|ico|jpeg|jpg|js|png)$ {
    expires max;
    log_not_found off;
  }

}

-What exact errors are you facing? It could be a good idea to check the Nginx logs and see if you can extract something from there as well.

The error is Error 525 - SSL Handshake Failed. Do I still need to install Let’s Encrypt in DigitalOcean? In my old host, I don’t need to install the SSL and simply use the one from Cloudflare

The domain is https://lab.wptips.dev/. I’m on the process of fixing it so the error might not say 525 when you check it.

I can’t find the log in my /etc/nginx folder. Where is this log?

Thanks
