OSArch Website link weird and broken

1. B by baswein on 3 Nov 2022, edited 6 Nov 2022 # -1 votes

   When I search OSArch on Duck Duck Go the first hit is https://www.osarch.org/

   

   When I click on it it gives me a warning

   

   

   If I ignore the warning I get sent to the blender bim site

   However if I search for it on Google there is no problem.

   The difference seems to be https://www.osarch.org/ vs https://osarch.org/

   That is so weird?

   @Moult @tetov are there two DNS records and one needs updating?

   I don’t know if it’s two records both pointing at our server and the redirect happens at the server or if it’s www -> bare domain -> server.

   Should preferably be the latter. @Moult: How is set up?

   Not an issue with DNS, DNS simply points both at the same server, issue was with SSL at the Nginx vhost. I use certbot for SSL and what certbot does is it creates a redirect from non-SSL to SSL, but I only ran certbot for the osarch.org name and not www.osarch.org. Rookie error, fixed now :)

   Great!

   (But if you use a CNAME to point www. -> osarch.org you only need to to maintain one cert, since nginx would only serve osarch.org :)

   @tetov oh you're absolutely correct that's the correct solution! I've just updated it. Let me know if there are any issues!

   Thanks @Moult - It is still broken for me. I refreshed the cache but it could be I didn't do it right or it just takes some time to propagate.

   @baswein are you on Linux or have access to nslookup on Windows? If so, you can check with: nslookup www.osarch.org and it should say www.osarch.org canonical name = osarch.org. Also try nslookup www.osarch.org 85.10.200.14 and see if the output is different.

    Ok - I'm on windows. Hopefully I did this right .

    I tried some other things. Using firefox in private browsing mode:

    1. I searched for osarch on duck duck go and chose the first hit = I get the warning and if I click through it I go to the old blenderbim landing page

    2. I type osarch.org into the search bar and press enter = No problems

    3. I type https://www.osarch.org and press enter = I get the warning and if I click through it I go to the old blenderbim landing page

    4. I type http://www.osarch.org and press enter = No Problems
