Too Many Redirects error after switching to Cloudflare

1. Check SSL/TLS Settings in Cloudflare:

• Go to your Cloudflare dashboard.
• Navigate to the SSL/TLS section.
• Ensure the SSL mode is set to one of the following:
  • Flexible: If your server does not have an SSL certificate installed.
  • Full or Full (Strict): If your server has an SSL certificate installed.
  Note: Using “Flexible” mode while your server is expecting HTTPS requests can cause a redirect loop.

1. Ensure Server Redirects Are Correct:

• If your server is forcing HTTPS using a redirect (e.g., in your .htaccess, Nginx, or web server settings), make sure it aligns with the Cloudflare SSL mode.
• If you are using Full or Full (Strict) in Cloudflare, make sure your server is also set to serve content over HTTPS.

1. Check for Mixed Content Redirects:

• If your site is redirecting between HTTP and HTTPS, it can cause a redirect loop.
• You can use Cloudflare’s “Automatic HTTPS Rewrites” feature to fix this:
  • In your Cloudflare dashboard, go to SSL/TLS > Edge Certificates, and enable Automatic HTTPS Rewrites.

1. Clear Cache:

• Clear both your browser cache and Cloudflare cache. In Cloudflare, go to Caching > Configuration and click on Purge Everything.

Once you’ve adjusted these settings, try accessing your site again.
