Thanks @mattdy for your clarification. I managed to make it work, not exactly as your scenario, but I figured out some stuff, at least I was able to publish a nginx and expose it by traefik. On cloudflare tunnel I had to put the IP address of my host where Docker Swarm is running. When I put the stack name (service name) does not work. And I had to set also TRAEFIK_POLL_URL to HTTP not HTTPS and for the host IP. Now I need to figure out how to change everything to make work with multiple domains :-)

Hey @mattdy

I know its been a while since you made this, but I've run into a couple problems. I've gotten to the point DNS records are being made. But when I go to that site, I get a 1033 tunnel error. Googling it most people just say the tunnel itself isn't running. Though mine says healthy and running. I am running all this off Unraid (Linux distro) so I'm not able to follow everything 100% with the compose, as they use fields instead of compose files.

My thought is my tunnel's public hostname is incorrect. I had the service type as HTTPS and the URL originally as the private IP for the container running it, then switched it to be "traefik" the name of the container.

external.mydomain.com and traefik.mydomain.com were both made as cnames. Both giving 1033 argo tunnel errors. If you have any advice I'd be very appreciative!

Hi @NEP1192

When you view the tunnel (Network / Tunnels) within Cloudflare, does it show as 'healthy'? If not, then there's a problem with the configuration of the tunnel on your system. If it is showing 'healthy', then perhaps you've not put the correct Tunnel ID into your CNAMEs?

If it is showing 'healthy', then perhaps you've not put the correct Tunnel ID into your CNAMEs?

Yep put in the connector ID not the tunnel ID, thank you!

Also figured out the 404 error I was having is because I needed to add the reverse proxy inside traefik's fileConfig.yml as well.

Hi @mattdy

My docker setup is pretty simple, and I have a healthy green tunnel, however when I start the companion container the logs are scrolling these errors and I can't figure out if this is because my public hostname for my tunnel is incorrect or if I have something else set incorrectly in my configuration?

Hi @frntman

It's a bit difficult to know what's happening there without seeing the rest of the setup.

Have you definitely got a Traefik Router set up for your Service? From a quick look at the code, you might get an error here if the Service is found, but there's no Router specified? Try enabling debug logging and see what that says.

Hi, @mattdy

having trouble with API.
With api token set to

Zone : Zone Settings : Read, Zone : Zone : Read and Zone : DNS : Edit

I'm gettin

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/cloudflare-companion", line 551, in <module> sync_mappings(get_initial_mappings(traefik_included_hosts, traefik_excluded_hosts), doms) File "/usr/sbin/cloudflare-companion", line 405, in sync_mappings if point_domain(k, domain_infos): ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/sbin/cloudflare-companion", line 177, in point_domain records = cf.zones.dns_records.get(domain_info['zone_id'], params={u'name': name}) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/CloudFlare/cloudflare.py", line 747, in get raise CloudFlareAPIError(e=e) from None CloudFlare.exceptions.CloudFlareAPIError: Unable to authenticate request

But with full global Api key everything working. Whats missing from permissions?

Oh, found solution!

You need to remove the CF_EMAIL in companion;s compose!

And no need in *. in origin server name(or add No TLS Verify option)!

Thx for awesome guide!

Hi @mattdy,
Just wondering if this is dependent on "TRAEFIK_VERSION" as the options are 1 or 2 and I'm actually running 3 ???

Just wondering if this is dependent on "TRAEFIK_VERSION" as the options are 1 or 2 and I'm actually running 3 ???

I'm successfully running traefik v3 with TRAEFIK_VERSION set to 2, so this shouldn't be a problem

Thanks for the writeup. I've been struggling with acme timeout/ cloudflare propagation issues and it looks like you've got a fix in here. I'm just adapting / integrating your (wow, comprehensive) solution into what I've got but noticed one small item [TUNNEL_TOKEN] is missing from your env file.

noticed one small item [TUNNEL_TOKEN] is missing from your env file.

Good spot @jstimmer, thanks very much - I've updated the environment file to include that. Unfortunately cloudflared can't accept a file name containing the token yet - it looks like this functionality is in development though: cloudflare/cloudflared#645

Glad you found the writeup useful!

@kazesaurav - Unless you've obfuscated the logs, it looks like you haven't set the ROOT_DOMAIN correctly - it's trying to connect to "traefik.domain.com"

It's obfuscated.

It's obfuscated.

In that case, it looks like there's an issue with verifying your SSL certificate for that domain, I'd check that the certificate is being provisioned properly by Traefik

@mattdy got the SSL working, but companion is failing to authenticate with cloudflare:

@mattdy okay I see it authenticated now but seeing below error:

I had so many issues with acme that I just disabled it and only manage DNS (direct CNAME) records via cloudflare-companion and left SSL to be sorted out by Cloudflare but allowing https through the tunnel (using no TLSVerify and 443 on CF tunnel path | CF SSL/TLS: Full (strict) and edge certificates: 'always use HTTPS' & 'automatic HTTPS rewrites' set to true.)

Did you do this config only on Cloudflare portal or something on docker compose as well, if you can help on that.

Maybe try without /api at the end of TRAEFIK_POLL_URL? Other than that, I'm afraid I don't know!
