I followed this tutorial to set up local domain names with SSL-certificates using DuckDNS: https://notthebe.ee/blog/easy-ssl-in-homelab-dns01/
I have three local domains for my Nginx Proxy Manager running on a VPS, for my self-hosted Nextcloud and my Proxmox-WebGUI both running on my local Homeserver. They follow the scheme service.dataprolet.duckdns.org
.
Now I use Uptime-Kuma to monitor my services including the three domains and for some reason those three domains constantly time out after 48 seconds. I already set up the retries to 3, but to no avail.
I also use Pi-hole and Unbound and thought, that might be an issue, but testing my DNS using dig
, mtr
, traceroute
, nslookup
and host
all returned normal values and no errors.
Does anybody have any idea what could cause this? I'm kind of clueless at this point. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I don't get it.
- I can't ping duckdns.org on my home server. I only get 100 % packet loss. I can open the website in my browser though. I also can't ping www.duckdns.org, which redirects to
appservers-duckdns-prod-1630339571.ca-central-1.elb.amazonaws.com
. Also gets 100 % packet loss. - I've added duckdns.org to my Uptime-Kuma and it got flagged as down because
timeout of 48000ms exceeded
but my other domains using DuckDNS were unaffected. - I added another local domain to Uptime-Kuma to see the differences of having ignoring SSL errors tuned on or off and the number of retries:
- Nextcloud
- Ignore SSL error = false
- Retries = 2
- Proxmox
- Ignore SSL error = true
- Retries = 1
- VPS
- Ignore SSL error = false
- Retries = 1
- Homepage
- Ignore SSL error = true
- Retries = 2
Throughout the day only the newly added Homepage got flagged as down for 5 times. The 3 others were up the whole time.
Not sure how this helps, but here you go.
