You’ve created an HTTP to HTTPS redirect on your domain, but the problem is that you always redirect to the home page (/) rather than redirecting to the HTTPS version of requested URL.

So when I request http://uaitracking.com/css/main.css, I get redirected to https://uaitracking.com/ rather than https://uaitracking.com/css/main.css.

This loss of the path in the redirect is also what it causing your Let’s Encrypt validation to fail.

Fix the redirect so that it includes the requested path in the redirect URL.

Wow, I got my apache setup right and it really worked, just that I needed to comment my redirect from http to https how can i do that in apache so next time this problem won’t happen again?

Here’s the code I had to comment:

#RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !(NT\ 5) [NC]
#RewriteRule ^(.*) https://uaitracking.com [R]
#Redirect /test https://uaitracking.com/test/
4

Something like this instead:

RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !=on
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [R,L]
