Question
Unable to add SSL certificate using Let's Encrypt.
Hi @all,
I was following this tutorial to install SSL on my droplet.
How To Secure Apache with Let’s Encrypt on Ubuntu 16.04
But for some reason I am getting this error:
Failed authorization procedure. topladylingerie.co.ke (tls-sni-01): urn:acme:err or:connection :: The server could not connect to the client to verify the domain :: Connection refused, www.topladylingerie.co.ke (tls-sni-01): urn:acme:error:c onnection :: The server could not connect to the client to verify the domain :: Connection refused
IMPORTANT NOTES:
The following errors were reported by the server:
Domain: topladylingerie.co.ke
Type: connection
Detail: Connection refused
Domain: www.topladylingerie.co.ke
Type: connection
Detail: Connection refused
To fix these errors, please make sure that your domain name was
entered correctly and the DNS A record(s) for that domain
contain(s) the right IP address. Additionally, please check that
your computer has a publicly routable IP address and that no
firewalls are preventing the server from communicating with the
client. If you’re using the webroot plugin, you should also verify
that you are serving files from the webroot path you provided.
And I have checked the firewall status, here is the ufw status:
Status: active
To Action From
Apache Full ALLOW Anywhere
OpenSSH ALLOW Anywhere
80 ALLOW Anywhere
443 ALLOW Anywhere
Apache Full (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
OpenSSH (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
80 (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
443 (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
I am doing this first time and had googled but no result. and event tried the cases on tutorial page. still error persists…
Can anyone help?
