I created my community using Sharkey, and I didn’t want to bother the service maintainers any more than I already have, so I’m reaching out here for help. 😂

How did you get your servers online? I manage my domain through Cloudflare, and I tried setting up a tunnel to access my instance. The server is online, and I can access the admin panel via an IP address, but I get an error when I type in the domain via my browser (Firefox). Cloudflare users, I could really use your help!

    Are you using Cloudflare as DNS, proxy, or via their argo tunnels? (I know you said tunnel, but then mention accessing via IP address, so I’m not entirely sure what you’ve done.)

    Kinda changes what you should be looking at.

      As far as I know the server’s able to be accessed by an IP address so when setting up Cloudflare via their Argo tunnel, that’s what I put in the config file.

        Okay so you’re able to access it via the IP it’s hosted on, but NOT via the domain name in the tunnel?

        Is the working IP a public or private one?

        My $5 is that you don’t have the tunnel configured properly and that’s why you’re having issues, but maybe not.

        Also, what specifically did you put in the config file? Usually they’re not asking for an IP, but the FQDN of the site.

          Yep, and I’m unsure I just know that I set everything up in CLI. And is that so? In the config file under ingress, it just says ‘service’ under hostname so I figured it was talking about the IP.
