**Ubuntu Server:**  
**20.04LTS:**

Just installed Virtualmin again thinking my previous installation had flaws but my problems still remains. I am having problems with SSL websites.

I have set up a FQDN its configured to have a SSL connection and lets encrypt was able to request and install this without issue.

When I visit this [https://www.mydomain.com:10000](https://www.mydomain.com:10000) I can access virtualmin from both LAN and WAN.

My issue comes when i try to access a website just using SSL so if i was to visit [https://www.mydomain.com](https://www.mydomain.com) I get ERR\_CONNECTION\_REFUSED message.

Firewall is configured to allow port 443. Router is set to Forward port 443 to destination server. however when I check which ports are listening I see 443 is only listening on IPV6 and this should have been disabled by default as my Provider does not currently support IPV6 addresses.

```

When i run a port check on 443 it does confirm port 443 is not currently open and having tried various things I just cannot get port 443 to listen for incoming connections

Can anyone provide some assistance.

I’ve had issues with UBUNTU LTS 20.04 since I tried changing from Centos 7. I finally dumped it. I’m going with C 8, until I have to update. I had too many issues to post here. Good luck.
