TLS error even with new cert

I am getting the following error on Firefox, Chrome etc

An error occurred during a connection to recipeapix789.cookingisfun.ie. SSL received a record that exceeded the maximum permissible length. Error code: SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG

This is a domiain that has been working over TLS https for some time.

The server was recently restored from backup, however since then I deleted and had caddy recreate TLS Certs.

Is there a way I can get more info?

I am running Caddy 0.10.0

Anyone know what this error is and how to solve?

There’s an Apache server at recipeapix789.cookingisfun.ie:443. It also seems horribly misconfigured - it’s serving HTTP on :443. Can’t say I’ve ever seen that one before.

Caddy seems to be answering on :80 just fine though.

I have to assume that Apache actually has bound port :443 since if Caddy was proxying it you’d still likely have working HTTPS, regardless of what Apache served up.

Fixed thanks.

In my slightly mangled setup I let apache capture 443 on startup otherwise windows takes it before caddy runs. Usually I then change apache config and start caddy. This time I didn’t change apache so apache was trying to serve http over port 443.

I need to change how I run on startup. Maybe set up caddy service. Thanks for your help
