Duck DNS help needed

Installation Home Assistant OS
1

Hi! I have successfully configured access via Duck DNS on an previous Raspberry Pi Hass.io setup.
Having endless problems on a new/current setup.
This is my Config:
{
“lets_encrypt”: {
“accept_terms”: true,
“certfile”: “fullchain.pem”,
“keyfile”: “privkey.pem”
},
“token”: “MY TOKEN”,
“domains”: [
“https://MY URL.duckdns.org”
],
“seconds”: 300
}

And this is my Log:

INFO: Using main config file /data/workdir/config

  • Generating account key…
  • Registering account key with ACME server…
  • Done!

Any/all help/advice/guidance would be most welcome, please!

Try to remove https:// from the domain name.

Many thanks! Config/Log now looks good but still can;t access :frowning:
Your help is appreciated.

Have you checked your router ports so they redirect correctly?
I had massive issues setting up DuckDNS and Let’s Encrypt but in the end it was simple mistakes made by myself.

Yes, ports appear to be correctly set up and open/accessible.
Thanks again for your help!

In your configuration.yaml, check the base URL address, it should be the complete DuckDNS URL including https:// and the :port number being used, in most cases that is 8123.

Hi! I have (finally) got access to HA through DuckDNS working correctly (Using a ‘new’ addon NGINX SSL proxy)
Your help is much appreciated. Wishing you safe and happy holidays and Merry Christmas if you so celebrate!
