Cloudflare preventing URL rewriting

    Hi

    I’m having issues with W3 Total Cache and CloudFlare. All the settings are correctly setup within W3TC’s extensions.

    But the fact that I use SSL on Cloudflare appears to be causing issues with the URL rewriting. The server configuration allows .htaccess write.

    These are the two errors I am getting, any help would be most appreciated.

    Cheers

    W3 Total Cache error: It appears Page Cache URL rewriting is not working. Please verify that the server configuration allows .htaccess
Unfortunately disk enhanced page caching will not function without custom rewrite rules. Please ask your server administrator for assistance. Also refer to the install page for the rules for your server.
Technical info

.htaccess file contains rules to rewrite url https://domain.com/w3tc_rewrite_test into https://domain.com/?w3tc_rewrite_test which, if handled by plugin, return "OK" message.
The plugin made a request to https://domain.com/w3tc_rewrite_test but received:
SSL: certificate subject name 'ssl2000.cloudflare.com' does not match target host name 'domain.com'
instead of "OK" response.
    W3 Total Cache error:It appears Minify URL rewriting is not working. Please verify that the server configuration allows .htaccess
