SSL Support

Hi serv00 dev team

I migrated my site from byethost server to yours. Note that cloudflare controls all DNS records for my domain. I used strict ssl mode with lets encrypt CA but after the migrate i can only use non-strict modes or get errors from cloudflare about ip when visiting my domain. I have even tried to use your lets encrypt but get errors (more than one A record found) when running with cloudflare or (the A record for the domain is incorect) when i pause cloudflare an go direct to server. I have just removed cloudflare dns from my domain provider an added yours for test debugging this issue better. Any advise is awesome, by the way think i see your vision this is a great service you provide that developers an you can benefit from (with beta testing software). 👍

Hello,

we see that you have solved your problem with CloudFlare.
Let's Encyrpt certificates can only be generated (including renewal) in our panel when the A record is pointing to our server IP.

Yes got it sorted was using the wrong IP (notice that their were two ip addresses an my domain used a different ip from the one my ssl cert had) that created issue with ssl cert being verified properly. I also added cloudflare nameserver to my dns config inside devilweb solved everything (SSL strict mode, all page load errors etc). 😊 Thanks for the timely back support response maybe others might need help on this so i mentioned what solved it above. Another question can we add custom software like varnish cache or redis with this server setup. 🤔

You can run your own Redis. The description is in the docs:

admin Yes i already tried that not sure how to do anything else after running the server lol. I wanted to install redis properly via ssh apt-get install redis commands but that dont work. Hope someone in the community who has used redis here on their site know how to use the standard wordpress method to connect thru the redis plugin controller. It doesnt work using port 0 think plugin only uses redis default port. So drop-in not fully working. Any other help is welcomed.

Tec4Sho SOLVED after few days of long trail and research finally came up with a easy method (tried many different ways) to add redis stack cache to wordpress.

admin

Tec4Sho I'm glad that you found a solution. Redis is already installed on our system and needs just to be configured. Port reservation is needed and that reserved port put into config.

Tec4Sho

admin Yea tried all that but your redis info page method just doesn't work for wordpress (beside getting the server listening - started) think my way works better for me. I have a redis stack db on AWS that is controlled by the redis plugin via my wordpress. I dont see how to get yours working with the plugin or how it can monitor an control wordpress cache. But if you believe your way can work on wordpress the same or better an have a full how-to i would try it. Thanks

Tec4Sho UPDATE
After some testing on redis caching by external AWS is not performing as expected things got slower on the backend rather quickly. So i decided to get your internal redis cache fully working with the redis object cache plugin an query monitor to allow easy internal monitoring of object caching an flushing directly in wp backend. Everything works wonderful now thank you for the help and amazing server hosting service you provide. 😎 Always willing to do some lite beta testing if needed. 👌
