URL Forwarding / DNS config not working

Phoenix

Trying to get boltbrain.ca to forward to bolt-brain.fly.dev.

boltbrain.ca is registered at porkbun.com.

I set up URL forwarding boltbrain.ca → bolt-brain.fly.dev
I put in A and AAAA records with the ip addresses fly says should work.

Type Host Answer TTL
A boltbrain.ca 137.66.5.92 3000
A *.boltbrain.ca 137.66.5.92 3000
AAAA boltbrain.ca 2a09:8280:1::50:8f36:0 3000
AAAA *.boltbrain.ca 2a09:8280:1::50:8f36:0 3000 
curl -v boltbrain.ca

The problem seems to be on fly’s side.

That curl output is Fly redirecting from HTTP to HTTPS. You want to check the HTTPS request.

❯ curl -v https://boltbrain.ca
* Host boltbrain.ca:443 was resolved.
* IPv6: 2a09:8280:1::50:8f36:0
* IPv4: 137.66.5.92

Something is wrong with the SSL cert. In the Fly dashboard, has the domain verification been completed?

That was it! I just had to add a cert in the UI. Easy peasy. Thank you!

That is a bit weird that curl actually got through one of the times I tried it without the cert being there.
