Error 525 SSL handshake failed - Cloudflare as DNS

I have setup 2 Google sites

I use Cloudflare as DNS for the following domains

I have setup custom domain at Google site. Please refer to my attachment



For Cloudflare DNS, I have setup CNAME, with value ghs.googlehosted.com





However, I'm getting Error 525 SSL handshake failed for both sites





Any idea how I can resolve the problem?

In Cloudflare SSL settings, I have tried to change from "Full" to "Flexible". However, that will end up with infinity redirection - ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

According to mxtoolbox, you haven't set up the appropriate CNAME records

Hi Yan Cheng Cheok, thanks for your post in the Sites community.
 
My lookups show no CNAME records:

Hem, that is strange!

I have double check on the DNS record of cloudflare. I'm pretty sure I have setup the CNAME section. Please see the screenshot.


Anyhow, I have contacted cloudflare, to query why mxtoolbox report CNAME is not found for www.wenote.me

Thanks.

We manage to fix the problem, by changing the proxy status, from "Proxied" to "DNS only". Please the following screenshot.

Thank you for help!
