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.

is your job. A working port 80 is required, not a timeout.

Unfortunately, our major-sysadmin politics is to prevent broadcasting opening 80 port.  
Is there any other way to make a new LE sertificate without opening this port?  
And of course to easely renew it in the future.

a wrong policy, change that.

Or switch to dns validation.

Thanks a lot. I will try )  
And there is one more trouble. It looks like some times ago my renewing of LE was broken.  
This is about my other site: arfa.travel  
And this is other host with opened 80 port.  
It was always everything good but now I receive letter that sertificate will gone soon.  
What could have happened?  
My wacs.exe writes this:

Still dont work.  
I’m very disappoint. It looks everything OK with my site on 80 port.  
And win-acme doing everything without any error.  
But my [https://api.bolerotour.ru](https://api.bolerotour.ru) doesn’t want to work correct.  
It returns ERR\_CONNECTION\_TIMED\_OUT.  
Both 80 and 443 ports are opened.  
When my carma was broken?

Now I can open your file. 404, but that's a correct answer.

Looks like you have a firewall with regional blockings, so Letsencrypt is blocked.

Works great.
