Timeout when enabling ssl

[Grant Cawood]

I have an AMS installed on Azure, using the recommended configuration.

I've followed the instructions outlined here https://antmedia.io/enable-ssl-on-ant-media-server/ to enable ssl.

Failed authorization procedure. The server could not connect to the client to verify the domain :: Fetching http://ochra-streaming.southeastasia.cloudapp.azure.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/GUEeoaW1z1XwJ7HqSPgRCWSc5NMx3r9Q3RO41F-vc-w: Timeout during connect (likely firewall problem)

I can't see anything in my firewall which would be blocking the connection, is there anything specific I can look for?

I've checked the DNS record and that's all good. I can't find any other info in the documentation that might help me.

Hi Grant,

Please check whether there is port forwarding:https://github.com/ant-media/Ant-Media-Server/wiki/Installation#list-and-delete-current-port-forwardings

If there is, delete it, then try again.

After that you can enable it again.

Best regards,

I had the same issue when installing in Azure from the market place.

I had to open port 80 on the networking inbound port rules and also use port forwarding on the VM to map port 80 to port 5080

sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 5080 

Lets encrypt could then verify the domain over port 80 and the SSL certificate was generated.

Hope this helps somebody ...
