Traefik using letsencrypt not routing to my services

This is my first time using traefik and letsencrypt, in this case I am just using it to provide secure http to my website, after struggling to string them up together using docker compose, I discover the lock icon(indicating the site is secure is shown in my browser) but the web application traefik is suppose to route to is not run, instead a "Gateway Timeout" text is written to the browser.

here are the setup files.

docker-compose.yml

services:
  traefik:
    image: traefik:1.7.12
    restart: always
    ports:
      - 80:80
      - 443:443
    networks:
      - web
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
      - ./traefik.toml:/traefik.toml
      - ./acme.json:/acme.json
    container_name: traefik
    environment:
      - "GODADDY_API_KEY=my-godaddy-api-key"
      - "GODADDY_API_SECRET=my-godaddy-api-secret"

  server:
    container_name: my-server
    image: my-server-image
    expose:
      - "8000"
    volumes:
      - ./:/app
      - uploadedFiles:/app/uploaded_files/
    environment:
      host_server: db
      db_server_port: 5432
      database_name: mydatabase
      db_username: myuser
      db_password: mypassword
      ssl_mode: prefer
    labels:
      - "traefik.docker.network=web"
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      - "traefik.basic.frontend.rule=Host:mydomain.com"
      - "traefik.basic.port=8000"
    networks:
      - postgresqlnet
    restart: always
    depends_on:
      - database

traefik.toml

debug = false

logLevel = "ERROR"
defaultEntryPoints = ["https","http"]

[entryPoints]
  [entryPoints.http]
  address = ":80"
    [entryPoints.http.redirect]
    entryPoint = "https"
  [entryPoints.https]
  address = ":443"
  [entryPoints.https.tls]

[retry]

[docker]
endpoint = "unix:///var/run/docker.sock"
domain = "mydomain.com"
watch = true
exposedByDefault = false

[acme]
email = "email@mydomain.com"
storage = "acme.json"
entryPoint = "https"
onHostRule = true
caServer = "https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory"
[acme.httpChallenge]
entryPoint = "http"
  [acme.dnsChallenge]
  provider = "godaddy"
  delayBeforeCheck = 0
  [[acme.domains]]

I can't see how this problem has anything to do with Let's Encrypt--it's going to be an issue with your Traefik configuration. I'd suggest you check with whatever support resources exist for Traefik to determine where that error is and how to fix it.
