I deployed the openvidu 2.14 on the ubuntu server. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/openvidu/original/1X/c26ef8ee223f76c24beac98b29846ba2373d487e.png) The letsencrypt certificate is failed. I configured the subdomain a record correctly. What’s the problem? Best regards, ---

I checked at [openvidu.wematcher.com](http://openvidu.wematcher.com) certificate you are using is issued to [admin.wematcher.com](http://admin.wematcher.com) Do following: 1. Check your .env file and see domain , email are correct including certificate type letsencrypt 2. rename or delete certificate folder. 3. restart openvidu ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/openvidu/original/1X/2b78d6d64703d8b5ac2202e9758b2ae160664e29.png) ---

The correct url: [https://openvidu.wematcher.com:4443/#/](https://openvidu.wematcher.com:4443/#/) But this certificate is my own-made certificate, and this is valid only for 3 months. ( in the .env file, I used “owncert” mode. ) But I want to use “letsencrypt” mode, when I use this mode, the above error triggers. ---

Try with letsencrypt and share with us the NGINX logs. Regards ---

I think there is some miscommunication. I checked again your present SSL is already from letsencrypt even it is put as own certificate. Error what you posted above is changing from own certificate to letsencrypt for same domain. Since you have same domain name issue may be from letsencrypt. Can you please confirm if you want your own certificate not from letsencrypt but from some other provider? ---

When I change the certificate mode as “letsencrypt”, then the nginx trigger error, and my OpenVidu server cannot reach. Please check these screenshot. And I must leave the certificate mode as “owncert”, because I must operate my website. ---

Hi @lihuapeng, I think I have the root of the problem. If I do `curl -Ik http://openvidu.wematcher.com` I see that you have running an Apache server at port 80. It is mandatory for letsencrypt to have port 80 available to validate the certificate through the path `http://openvidu.wematcher.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/...` You need to stop Apache at this port to let the let’s encrypt operation works in our nginx container.
