Failed to configure HTTPS server

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: node3.vortexhosting.store

I ran this command: sudo wings

It produced this output:
FATAL: [May 20 15:28:52.795] failed to configure HTTPS server auto_tls=false error=open /etc/letsencrypt/live/node3.vortexhosting.store/fullchain.pem: no such file or directory

Hello @Aj-Stark, welcome! :slight_smile:

The HTTP-01 challenge requires access to Port 80.

I see this using curl from the Portland, Oregon, USA metro area

Most likely a firewall blocking access.

Please show the output of sudo certbot certificates.

here is what i got in shell

root@panel:~# sudo certbot certificates
Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log


No certificates found.


root@panel:~#

What happened to this certificate? Why does your server configuration reference a file that does not exist (and probably never did)

im not sure what its trying to do that it may be a easy install pterdactyl thing

Maybe try asking on a pterdactyl forum? Someone else here may know but I am not familiar with that.

You might try searching this forum too. But, asking directly on their forum probably best.
