You seem to have removed perhaps the most important question of the entire questionnaire:

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. crt.sh | example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is:

Hello thanks for your reply:
my domain is leffarmor.fr and the site is associations.leffarmor.fr

Your webserver seems to be speaking HTTPS on port 80. Port 80 is usually reserved for HTTP. This could be due to a misconfiguration of your Apache, but sometimes also due to incorrect portmaps in routers (where external port 80 is mapped to internal port 443 by mistake for example..) Could you share the Apache configuration file?

Not sure what's wrong with it, but perhaps it's the _default_ here? Maybe you need to change it to:

<VirtualHost *:443>

Just like port 80? But I'm just guessing now..

laurent · August 30, 2021, 8:31am

and the file ports.conf

If you just change the port or add more ports here, you will likely also

have to change the VirtualHost statement in

/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf

Listen 80

NameVirtualHost *:443
Listen 443

Listen 443

You're problem is likely here:

HardcoreGames · August 30, 2021, 2:55pm

My vhost file is so basic and it works fine with only listen *80

the vhost is not intended for redirect it is only there for apache2 to know where to look for the document root which can be anywhere desired

the certificate is separate entity

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName hardcoregames.ca
ServerAlias www.hardcoregames.ca
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/hardcoregames.ca

<Directory /var/www/hardcoregames.ca>
     Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
     AllowOverride All
 </Directory>

 ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/example.com-error.log
 CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/example.com-access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
