If your origin server lacks a valid SSL certificate, Cloudflare will not be able to establish a secure connection and will likely show an error in the Cloudflare dashboard. Traffic to your origin may be blocked. You'll need to install and configure a valid SSL certificate on your origin server to resolve this.
