×Hello, @thethih
Have you create any custom rules in the Firewall? You can make sure that the Plesk port (8443) is open. I believe this article should help you to set this:

Let me know how it goes.
Can you please let me know if your servers runs a UFW firewall as well? If you’re using UFW, you can view the current filtering rules by typing:
Question
sudo ufw status verbose
If you get Status: inactive then it’s disabled and we need to look somewhere else to sort the issue.
Let me know how it goes.
This are my firewall config. @alexdo i added the custom, still site not reachable error. But if i do away with firewall i can access but not secured. google gives error of unsecured website.
