Installed Certbot but HTTPS does not work

Help
1

My domain is: free.oberon.org

I ran this command: certbot --nginx

It produced the output where it stated that everything is ok. Then I removed the "Error 404" for HTTP (port 80) server directive. Before I ran certbot, free.oberon.org was not accessible from HTTP.

My web server is (include version): nginx/1.14.2

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Debian 10

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: VPS

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know): Yes

I'm using a console.

The version of my client is (output of certbot --version): 1.16.0

Hi @kekc_leader,

It looks like you have a firewall that is blocking incoming connections on port 443 (HTTPS), while allowing them on port 80 (HTTP).

Thank you! That was indeed the root of the issue.
I've run the following command as root and it fixed it:
ufw allow https
