I am learning php and LAMP servers, i have a very simple LAMP server running on VMWare fusion on my mac from my home, all it does is connect to the db and displays a success msg. I have set up a virtual host and can access it on my local machine and all machines connected to my network.
Now, i want to try to access this site over the internet from anywhere, i have a domain name with cloudfare and i have added A records to point to the ip of the server( i got this by running ip a when ssh'd into the server on my machine ), however i cannot acces this site, I don't have a ssl on the server yet, i tried using both fixed and flexible ssl on cloudfare but still can't access the site, what am i missing or doing wrong?
