How Let's Encrypt installation work?

Posted on October 24, 2019

Hello,

To allow domain resolve with HTTPS, I added Let’s encrypt Certificate under Account-> Security. And it shows with 3 months expiry.

What are the other steps I need to follow to make it work with domain?

Right now domain with HTTPS gives error:“ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED”

Hi @gangeshmatta,

It seems like you’ve enabled let’s encrypt but you haven’t actually allowed traffic on port 443 (HTTPS) or haven’t put a service to use it.

Can you please confirm what WebServer are you actually using, is it Nginx, Apache or something else?
