Fix Cloudflare 'too many redirects' on Laravel Forge SSL

May 26, 2023

Fix the too many redirects error on a Laravel Forge site with Cloudflare DNS by switching the SSL/TLS encryption mode from Flexible to Full (strict).

~~~

Solve it by setting SSL/TLS encryption mode to Full (strict) in the CloudFlare interface:

Cloudflare SSL/TLS encryption mode settings page showing Full strict option selected

It was set on Flexible by default, and just got this message over and over:

Browser error message showing too many redirects occurred when accessing the website
