Unable to add SSL certificate using Let's Encrypt.

Posted on July 26, 2017

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?
