MediaTailor to Cloudfront to Route 53 using HTTPS / SSL - Any Suggestions? Domain Continues To Fail

0

I have a fully functioning MediaTailor instance distributing HLS content in .m3u8 - (public data removed): https://(my cloudfront alphanumeric).cloudfront.net/v1/nevermind/58a2f0c6b3528a8407e12e2dd992bd221d5afc39/RadFAST1-Channel-Beachfront/radfast1.m3u8

I am trying to use a Route53 domain name to mask the cloudfront source:

I have registered a new domain with Route 53, I have created a SSL certificate, I have added the CNAME records to my Domain, I have added the Domain to the Cloudfront instance. Here are the results (which fail): https://(my dot com)/v1/nevermind/58a2f0c6b3528a8407e12e2dd992bd221d5afc39/RadFAST1-Channel-Beachfront/radfast1.m3u8

Does anyone have any suggestions / tips / ideas? I tried using a GoDaddy domain and found that that doesn't work for HTTPS. I purchased a domain from Route53 in hopes that the fact that AWS was hosting the domain would make this work, but no such luck. Is it my URL syntax from Cloudfront / Mediatailor?

Any assistance appreciated - I've been working on this for a week now.

Thanks.

Issue solved.

Here's how: when Route53 created the domain record the A name was set to https\072\057(my cloudfront distribution alphanumeric).cloudfront.net - I figured that was correct because Route53 set in that way when I first registered the domain.

When I removed the "https\072\057" from the A name record and replaced it with (my cloudfront distribution alphanumeric).cloudfront.net - everything worked including my HTTPS CNAME SSL.

Hello,

You'll probably want to remove your CloudFront link from this thread, or you could potentially incur unexpected costs from people watching your content as this is a public forum. Your domain http://radiantfc.net/ does not DNS resolve for me at all, so I don't think a DNS record has been setup for it, or hasn't propagated yet.

    Dirk -

    Not so worried about people watching the content - it's a test stream. I've registered the domain in Route53 and added the CNAME records. I have screen shot of domain in Route53 but can't add it in comments. I've been messing with this for days and I feel like I'm missing something really basic - though for the life of me I can't figure out what it is. Trying not to get frustrated - but this is the last step of this build / test and it should be easy...any assistance appreciated.
