I'm trying to clone a webserver that hosts sites that rely on Cloudflare for their SSL certificates.

After cloning the server and updating my local hosts file to point the site to the new server, I'm met with the error:

400 Bad Request
No required SSL certificate was sent
nginx

How can I work around this or resolve this without needing to take the original server/site offline?

If it matters, the website is a Wordpress site.

Note: I saw this similar question but it doesn't seem to quite cross over into the problem I'm seeing (Nginx used at proxy there, and no Cloudflare component)

    The problem is in the configuration of your cloned server - which you don't provide. Likely you require in your config the client to provide a client certificate (`ssl_verify_client on`), which the client does not have. – Steffen Ullrich Nov 09 '22 at 20:59
