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. https://crt.sh/?q=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: huhohi.com
I ran this command: I requested “Let’s Encrypt” certificate via “SSL Encryption” setting in my Webmin panel.
It produced this output: Certificate was created and shown as valid, but the page still marked as "Not secure"

My web server is (include version): I believe that it is called "dedicated server"
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu Linux 14.04.5
My hosting provider, if applicable, is: GoDaddy
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know): Yes
I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): Webmin 1.900
The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you’re using Certbot): I don’t know? Not sure if I have one at all. Maybe that’s the problem?
Hi @Kami-sama
it's impossible to check your site.
Because there is a blocking instance ( https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=huhohi.com ):

So it's impossible to see what's going wrong.
Perhaps open the firewall.
PS: But you don't have redirects http -> https. So if you open the http version, it's always unsecure.
Hey! Thank you for the reply!
Short update: so the error message was initially only when viewing the Webmin panel. Now it shows secure (gray padlock). SO I am wondering, maybe the certificate only applies to the panel? Could that be it?
The only rewrite I have is: RewriteBase /lt/ (that is the subdirectory)
But I don’t think it would be related here.
Regarding redirection, I do not think I have any. No forwarding on Godaddy side as well. I only have some host names. Could it be something from GoDaddy side? Or maybe I applied the certificate incorrectly?
Regarding firewall. I have not set it up, so not sure what could be blocking it.
A redirect isn't something of your dns settings (not a forward). And it has nothing to do with your certificate.
It's a http status 301 or 302 -> go there.
So if a user tries to load http://huhohi.com/, the user is redirected to https://huhohi.com/.
Check other domains ( https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/ - Grade B, A or A+) to see such redirects.
If such a redirect is correct, every user uses the encrypted version.
I don't see your https version. There must be a firewall or something else that blocks. Or a router without a port forwarding.
Update: issue was resolved after I installed certbot and sorted mixed content. Thank you eitherway!
