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: mediterraneodesign.dyndns.org

I ran this command: certbot -v --apache -d mediterraneodesign.dyndns.org

It produced this output:

My web server is (include version): apache 2 - 2.4.18

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: localhost

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): no

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you're using Certbot): 1.18.0

Here's the appropriate error: the Let's Encrypt validation server can't reach your Apache webserver on port 80. Nor can I by the way. You need to make sure your webserver is reachable on port 80 from the world wide web.

Also, I don't really understand why you tried certbot --nginx --dry-run too? Do you have a nginx webserver running too perhaps? Although that's unlikely looking at the error message provided after you tried that..

hi, thank for the answare:

why you tried certbot --nginx --dry-run too? *** SORRY I'M NEWBEE, I'VE TRIED

Port 80 seems tobe closed on open port check tool.
is it possible open both 80 and 443?
i've to keep open also after finished the installation?

tnx & regards

That's through HTTPS, which used port 443. The --apache plugin can only work with the so called http-01 challenge, which uses HTTP port 80.

You can read more about the different challenges here:

In general, it's a good idea to read all the documentation available on the Let's Encrypt site.

Yes it is.

That's recommended, yes. Please see:

Is your Apache configured for listening on port 80? Perhaps you could share the output of sudo apachectl -S ?

OR (gasp!)
Maybe the ISP blocks port 80.

Hint: You need a functional HTTP site before you can secure it (using HTTP authentication).
