Cannot get HTTPS to work on my site

I’ve currently trying to convert my website to HTTPS using the instructions here (Setting up SSL with LetsEncrypt and MeteorUp)

I’ve managed to get myself a cert but I can’t seem to connect to the site using HTTPS. I’m trying to figure out where in the process I’m going wrong. I think the problem is either in my MUP configuration or in my Azure endpoint setup but I’m not sure how to debug it.

So for MUP, I’ve created a ssl.pem using the file fullchain.pem and privkey.pem files generated in my letsencrypt folder and changed my MUP.json file to add the following

“ssl”: {
“pem”: “ssl.pm
},

// Configure environment
"env": {
“PORT” : 2999,
“ROOT_URL”: “https://webstandup.com”,
“MONGO_URL” : xxx
},

In Azure, I changed my public endpoint 80 that routes through to 2999 to endpoint 443.

When I go to curl -k https://www.webstandup.com, I get this error

curl: (35) Server aborted the SSL handshake

And when I’m remoting into the server and run curl -iv https://localhost:2999, then I get this error

  • Rebuilt URL to: https://localhost:2999/
  • Hostname was NOT found in DNS cache
  • Trying 127.0.0.1…
  • Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1) port 2999 (#0)
  • successfully set certificate verify locations:
  • CAfile: none
    CApath: /etc/ssl/certs
  • SSLv3, TLS handshake, Client hello (1):
  • Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to localhost:2999
  • Closing connection 0
    curl: (35) Unknown SSL protocol error in connection to localhost:2999

So it seems to me that my endpoints are configured properly and it’s hitting the app, and then I seem to not have my SSL configured properly. So I’m just raking my brain, I seem to have followed the instructions pretty clearly. Has anyone got ideas about what I’m doing wrong and how I can fix it?
