Does anyone have any ideas what, during an IndieAuth redirect, would cause a Secure Connection Failed error in Firefox?
#
GWG
Do you have an alternate browser to try?
#
[Ian_Forrester]
I can use Chrome, Chromium, Beaker, TOR, Gnome's own
#
GWG
[Ian_Forrester]: Also, do they give you access to the error logs for the site?
#
GWG
Maybe there are clues.
#
GWG
Try Chrome/Chromium as well.
#
GWG
I don't think it is the browser, but I'm hoping for more data
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Trying in Chrome
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Will try with chromium which has no plugins or anything
#
GWG
[Ian_Forrester]: I don't think it is the browser. I was hoping for more details in the error message
#
[Ian_Forrester]
I can confirm I tried in 3 different browsers and its no dice
#
GWG
The message here is also a Secure Content Warning?
#
[Ian_Forrester]
This site can’t be reached
#
[Ian_Forrester]
From Chromium
#
GWG
I looked this up.
#
[Ian_Forrester]
ok
#
GWG
Can you go into the Admin, there should be a WP Engine link, then General Settings, then Web Server and PHP Error Log
#
[Ian_Forrester]
OK
#
[Ian_Forrester]
I have php error logs or notice
#
GWG
Error
#
GWG
Anything of note?

Nothing about SSL?
#
[Ian_Forrester]
It might just be when I typed in the wrong user - Ian instead of Ianforrester in chrome
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Nothing about SSL
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Looking through the Apache logs
#
GWG
Did you change the site from http to https?
#
GWG
When did you first get the SSL certificate?
#
[Ian_Forrester]
I did
#
[Ian_Forrester]
I got lets encrypt cert
#
GWG
Wondering if there is something not redirecting correctly.
#
[Ian_Forrester]
I have two certs it seems... one for www.cubicgarden.com and one for cubicgarden.com
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Just seeing if they are the same
#
[Ian_Forrester]
I think it is, but I saw this option
#
[Ian_Forrester]
For pages not covered by your certificate settings below, choose whether to allow both HTTPS and HTTP connections or to force all connections to HTTP only. We recommend choosing _Secure all URLs_ for your certificates below, so all those URLs use HTTPS only.
#
[Ian_Forrester]
*Unconfigured pages*
#
[Ian_Forrester]
o - Allow HTTPS and HTTP
#
[Ian_Forrester]
x - HTTP only (currently selected)
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Just switched it and I get the same error
#
GWG
I'm going to have to think on this.
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Ok no problem, wondering if there is any other site I could use for indieauth in the meanwhile?
#
[Ian_Forrester]
For example ianforrester.org
#
[Ian_Forrester]
but it does seem like a lot of work changing all the references, so best if I don't
#
GWG
[Ian_Forrester]: There is one other way.
#
GWG
Disable the indieauth plugin, and instead add rel-me links to your site, which will use indieauth.com
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Oh really?
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Ok doing so now
#
[Ian_Forrester]
OK great... getting somewhere
#
GWG
You can do it by adding rel-me to something like github...that would allow you to log in delegating to github
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Oh... weird - "No supported rel="me" links were found on your site!"
#
[Ian_Forrester]
```<link href="https://micro.blog/cubicgarden" rel="me" />
#
[Ian_Forrester]
<link href="https://www.twitter.com/cubicgarden" rel="me" />```
#
[Ian_Forrester]
<link href="https://mastodon.cloud/@cubicgarden" rel="me" />
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Must remove the microblog one
#

Ian Forrester
#
GWG
[Ian_Forrester]: Indieauth.com doesn't support any of those right now
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Ah ok will add github now
#
GWG
As long as there is a link back to your site in your github profile, it will work.
#
GWG
Still want to figure out why self-hosted isn't working
#
[Ian_Forrester]
If you work it out, do please let me know
#
GWG
I have a few vague ideas, but not sure how to troubleshoot them. It might be something WPEngine can help with.
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Ok if you send me a list I can forward it to them
#
GWG
Send them the error from Firefox and Chrome and see what they say.
#
GWG
I've been talking to the WordPress developers and I warned them that this is a problem they'll have if they ever bake authorization into core.
#
[Ian_Forrester]
Ok will do
#

New goal, finish my 2020-01-01 goal by next HWC. :)

I was looking at Phonetrack for Nextcloud and find it interesting that it supports inputs from so many apps
