Creating a page rule for acme-challenge to complete

Please note: We are not Cloudflare and do not provide direct Cloudflare support.

Cloudflare may cause issues if you're attempting to auto-renew an SSL Certificate. You will need to create a Page Rule to disable the forcing of SSL on the ACME challenge.

To accomplish these, follow the steps below:

  1. Log into your Cloudflare account - https://dash.cloudflare.com/login
  2. Navigate to the Page Rules area of the dashboard
  3. Click Create Page Rule - *yourdomain.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/* (see also - picture below)
  4. Click + Add a Setting, select SSL, and select SSL setting Off
  5. Click Save and Deploy
