Hello, I have a self hosted instance of appwrite 1.6.1 on a vps. The .env file points to domain1.com, I can access the console and its served with a valid ssl. However when I create a new function from a template the resulting auto generated domain link gives me the error net::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID. I have noticed that the console url domain1.com uses a Let's Encrypt cert and the function url uses the TRAEFIK DEFAULT CERT. Anyways if I access the function from a http link the function works perfectly fine. So it has to be an issue with how I configured the .env or dns setting, right? Any help troubleshooting would be very appreciated.

.env _APP_ENV=production _APP_LOCALE=en _APP_OPTIONS_ABUSE=enabled _APP_OPTIONS_FORCE_HTTPS=enabled _APP_OPTIONS_FUNCTIONS_FORCE_HTTPS=enabled
_APP_OPTIONS_ROUTER_PROTECTION=disabled _APP_OPENSSL_KEY_V1=REDACTEDKEY _APP_DOMAIN= domain1.com
_APP_DOMAIN_FUNCTIONS= domain3.com
_APP_DOMAIN_TARGET= domain1.com

_APP_EMAIL_CERTIFICATES= REDACTED //valid email

My DNS settings A record domain1.com Server ip address //This domain points the the server that appwrite is hosted on and nothing else A record *.domain1.com Server ip address //I assume this is needed for all of the custom subdomains that are auto generated for each function

A record domain2.com Server ip address //this is the server that hosts the static files for the site A record www.domain2.com Server ip address
CNAME api.domain2.com domain1.com //Cname record for accessing appwrite from the front end without Third-party cookies

CNAME *.domain3.com api.domain2.com //domain just for functions

TL;DR
Developers having issues with Appwrite functions generating invalid SSL on custom domain. The issue is likely with .env or DNS settings, as the function URL uses a different cert than the console URL. To troubleshoot, ensure correct configuration in .env file and check DNS settings for proper subdomain setup. Solution: Verify and adjust .env file and ensure DNS settings correctly point to the server IPs.
