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](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: [http://dofriendly.com/](http://dofriendly.com/) I ran this command: sudo certbot --nginx It produced this output: ubuntu@ip-172-31-24-214:~$ sudo certbot --nginx Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log Plugins selected: Authenticator nginx, Installer nginx Which names would you like to activate HTTPS for? * * * 1: [dofriendly.com](http://dofriendly.com) 2: [www.dofriendly.com](http://www.dofriendly.com) * * * Select the appropriate numbers separated by commas and/or spaces, or leave input blank to select all options shown (Enter 'c' to cancel): 1,2 Cert not yet due for renewal You have an existing certificate that has exactly the same domains or certificate name you requested and isn't close to expiry.

Welcome to the Let's Encrypt Community πŸ™‚ Well... your port 443 (HTTPS) is closed, so redirecting from port 80 (HTTP) to port 443 (HTTPS) will result in no one being able to receive a useful response from your webserver. Thank you, by the way, for choosing to reinstall your existing certificate rather than acquiring a duplicate certificate. It shows your wisdom in recognizing the existence of an _installation_ problem rather than an _acquisition_ problem. ---
