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: goorme.bridgetec.co.kr

I ran this command:letsencrypt renew

It produced this output:

IMPORTANT NOTES:

- The following errors were reported by the server:

My web server is (include version): Apache/2.4.6(CentOS)

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): CentOS 7.3?

My hosting provider, if applicable, is:

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

I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):

what’s wrong?

im just trying ‘letsencrypt renew’ but it doesn’t work…

fetching your file

[http://goorme.bridgetec.co.kr/.well-known/acme-challenge/yENzkhuiXCD4dG3L9DawCYwPGWZpP7dvkPJuGRKLCKs](http://goorme.bridgetec.co.kr/.well-known/acme-challenge/yENzkhuiXCD4dG3L9DawCYwPGWZpP7dvkPJuGRKLCKs)

I have a Bad Request - Message:

You are sending https over port 80, this is wrong. So check your server configuration.

Port 80 must send plain http.

PS: This wrong url

[https://goorme.bridgetec.co.kr:80/.well-known/acme-challenge/yENzkhuiXCD4dG3L9DawCYwPGWZpP7dvkPJuGRKLCKs](https://goorme.bridgetec.co.kr:80/.well-known/acme-challenge/yENzkhuiXCD4dG3L9DawCYwPGWZpP7dvkPJuGRKLCKs)

works - https + Port 80
