Diaspora pod down

Support Podmin Support
1

The pod is down & i haven’t done any changes since it was up. It says

This site can’t be reached

or

This site can’t provide a secure connection

iitians.xyz sent an invalid response.

ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR

while ssl is updated & working fine.

sudo nginx -t is successful with no errors.

I have access the pod from other devices & browsers but same error

2

When I go to iitians.xyz I get this response:

This domain has expired. Is this your domain? Renew Now!

3

Already renewed but issues with domain registrar. Thanx, im also getting this message now in other mobile browsers

4

Then my best guess still is: it’s a DNS problem and not a diaspora problem…

Can you access the diaspora instance through IP address?

5

the ip forces to the domain. Most probably issue is with domain renewal from registrar end.

6

That’s weird, when I browse to the IP address I get a 412 nginx error Precondition Failed… so no ‘forcing to the domain’…
More info in 412 error: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Status/412
Unless you have diaspora running is a vhost that redirects to a special url and/or have multiple websites on your server, I think there is more to it than just a DNS (registration) problem.

sudo nginx -t

nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok

nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful

as root nginx -t

nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok

nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful

systemctl status nginx also gives

active running without any error

Its not running on vhost, theres’ only diaspora on 16.04 vm
