My website URL is: https://junakuvat.ml
What I’m seeing is: Cloudflare ERROR 525 SSL handshake failed
I’m using this software: Windows 10 Home, Mozilla Firefox, Infinityfree and Cloudflare SSL
Additional information: My website worked yesterday.
There is a problem that broke SSL handshakes on free servers. Try to go to the Cloudflare dashboard, click on your domain, go to “SSL/TLS”, set the SSL option to “Flexible” and change the WordPress URL from HTTPS to HTTP on the database phpMyAdmin by following this guide. After the problem is solved globally, you can revert the changes back to normal by setting the SSL option to Full and changing the WordPress URL from HTTP to HTTPS via the database phpMyAdmin.

Same problem I also faced. I can’t understand what to do. @Admin, please help.
My Web URL: generatepassiveincomeonline.ml
i would’nt unsecure your connection to site if your holding any sensitive data, even for sake of entering passwords to sign in to modify your site, without the secure connection your sites at more risk then just leaving it until its working again, I’m experiencing the same problem and hoping it just gets resolved soon rather then messing around too much
Same problem here, also checked the domain with dig interface etc. . Also visited the cloudflare link then and it said that:
Error 1001
DNS resolution error
What happened?
You’ve requested a page on a website () that is on the Cloudflare network. Cloudflare is currently unable to resolve your requested domain (www.aow-samp.com.cdn.cloudflare.net). There are two potential causes of this:
- Most likely: if the owner just signed up for Cloudflare it can take a few minutes for the website’s information to be distributed to our global network.
- Less likely: something is wrong with this site’s configuration. Usually this happens when accounts have been signed up with a partner organization (e.g., a hosting provider) and the provider’s DNS fails.
It seems like Admin posted an article that explains also what’s happening to the SSL system and how to fix it at the moment, and I never edited some of my posts to include that link. So please read it:

hi guys i have just the tried the following s method.i not sure its is works for you.but i can tell i no longer recive ssl handshake error…
here what i do
jus go to do https://www.sslforfree.com/ for Manually Verify Domain (DNS)
key in the required details
copy the pricate key and cert upload to ssl and in ur free panel
go to cloudlfare enable universal ssl wait for cloudflare to issue ur ssl…
and you set to full mode
this the method i used in cloud flare and the encryption is full have no issue running it now
ps. this is my first attempt to help
.please dont bash me if i help wrongly
That’s a good way to fix the issue as well. The root cause of the SSL Handshake Error was that the default, self signed SSL certificate was removed. But you can still upload your own SSL certificate, and use it to get full (and even full strict) SSL.
The main disadvantage with going this route is that you need to manually renew the SSL certificate every three months. So if you can make your website work with Flexible SSL, you can set it up once and know that it will keep working forever.

https://regenerationresources.ml/
u may the ssl license expiere 10/9/2020
Is the SSL issue still not fixed ? i am still facing this error 525 ssl handshake error !!
It’s still not fixed. You can get around that by installing a certificate if you want to use Cloudflare with the “Full” SSL mode, as InfinityFree now has an option on the Client Area that permits to request SSL certificates from Let’s Encrypt and install them on the hosting’s Control Panel. You can check the announcement for that here.
