oh, right, I have to write @Gargron to actually mention him. Silly me.

Do you have some hint on what might be failing, @Gargron

@zatnosk Looks like for some reason I can't get your profile by entering [email protected] into the search bar.

@Gargron can it be because I've enabled https only?

@zatnosk It seems like if you've enabled it, you haven't quite enabled it? https://client.webfinger.net/lookup?resource=zatnosk%40manowar.social All the links go to http, but redirect to https when you actually open them

@zatnosk The extra redirects might be causing the problems. How is your SSL stuff setup?

@Gargron oh, right!! Sorry, I done goofed.

@zatnosk Here is a sample nginx config https://github.com/Gargron/mastodon/wiki/Production-guide#nginx Notice how we're telling Rails that we're accessing it over https via X-Forwarded-Proto

@Gargron I'm using Apache, but I'm considering a switch.
I just remembered that I forgot to set the HTTPS variable in .env.production to true, but now that I've done that, it's redirecting too much :(

@zatnosk You need to set those extra headers so Rails knows how it's being accessed. Idk what the Apache way is but should be possible.
