Cant get app to connect with cloudflare tunnel (malformed server configuration)

Hello,

I have been having a few issues lately with a fresh install on my Docker instance. I’m using the official image by nextcloud. I have this behind a Cloudflare tunnel (which acts as a reverse proxy) and it seems to be causing issues with the apps connection.

So I can set this up and navigate to my NC via the local IP and the cloudflare tunnel completely fine, however when I attempt to connect my android app, it says 'malformed server configuration. This only happens with the proxy address on my domain but it works with the local IP. I do wish to use it on the proxy, so I can access my files anywhere.

I have considered that the reason is that I dont have a SSL installed on the apache webserver so that maybe the case? Please let me know what you guys think, I’m still quite new to this also.

Hey friend

For N reasons I ended up abandoning Cloudflare’s Tunnel and when I tested it I didn’t have this problem but I had a more annoying one that the application could not upload to a certain folder due to size limitations and the length of the path to the folder. So I ended up leaving my server accessible on the web by releasing the direct port on the router
