I installed Let’s Encrypt per the following tutorial:
Works to require a redirect to https but I can no longer reach the index.html web page or any other page on the site. I deleted the lines added by let’s encrypt to the .conf file for my site and now the site is reachable. I was trying to setup a password protection of the site per the following tutorial:
But instead of receiving a prompt for a username and password, I just received the following message in Google Chrome (and also could not reach pages in IE):
Not Found
The requested URL / was not found on this server.
Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu) Server at mysitename.com Port 443
the “mysitename.com” is just edited to not include my actual domain.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
