net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

Using Ghost
1

I am encountering a net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error when attempting to load posts. There is a significant delay, and at times, the post admin panel page fails to load. I have explored various discussions seeking a solution but have been unable to resolve the issue.

I am using Ghost with a fresh 1-click installation on Digital Ocean. I have recently added a DNS A record with my droplet’s IP. what are correct CloudFlare settings?

Try setting CloudFlare’s encryption mode to Full(Strict)

Hello Vikas garu,

I have switched it to full (strict) mode but am still encountering the issues.

I believe this might be a browser-related issue. There doesn’t seem to be any issue in the Edge browser, but both Opera and Chrome are still unable to load information about members in the dashboard. I have attempted to clear cookies and cache, but unfortunately, it has not resolved the issue.

Make sure you clear the browser’s page cache.

You might try waiting a few hours, because browsers’ handling of redirects can be weird

After clearing the browser’s cache and cookies, it started working.

i have the same issue on both URLs.

You’ve tried clearing the cache and using private mode, but the issue persists in browsers like Edge, Chrome, and Safari.

"I encountered a specific issue with reverse proxy schemes and found a solution that I’d like to share.

Here’s my network configuration:

NGINX → TRAEFIK (DOCKER) → GHOST (DOCKER)

In this setup, NGINX properly sends requests over HTTPS. However, the problem arose because Traefik was forwarding these requests to Ghost using HTTP, causing issues in Ghost.

To resolve this, I modified the docker-compose.yml file by adding the following two lines:

yamlCopy code

- "traefik.http.middlewares.ghost-test-https.headers.customrequestheaders.X-Forwarded-Proto=https"
- "traefik.http.routers.ghost-test.middlewares=ghost-test-https"

These additions ensure that the scheme is changed to HTTPS, addressing the issue effectively."
