Port 80 and 443 regarding Error 521

From research I find this indicates a connection issue between a Cloudflare proxy and the origin web server, Cloudflare tried to connect to your origin server on port 80 or 443, but received a connection refused error. This is often caused by security or firewall software and happens if the origin server has directly refused Cloudflare’s proxy request.


Is there a way to confirm if homestead is inadvertently blocking the communication from cloudflare.

Review Cloudflare Settings:
  • SSL/TLS: Ensure your Cloudflare SSL/TLS settings are configured correctly and that your origin server has a valid SSL certificate. 
  • DNS Records: Verify that your DNS records are correctly configured and that Cloudflare is pointing to the correct IP address for your website

You can SSL your Sitebuilder Plus website by following this article:

Ill follow up with the DNS page.

Please share a screenshot of the DNS page from within your Cloudflare account. It is likely something is incorrect in the settings.

This is the latest DNS setting, I have had many top Tech people from Homestead look at this and pretty much all of them say the old platform is not worked anymore therefore they cannot truly resolve the overall issue.
