Setting up https access just does not work

Configuration
1

Hi all,
just cant get https access to work.

Https just wont work, Http keeps working do.

Tryed everything mentioned in manual and community.

here goes:
port forwarded 8123 to 8123
port forwarded 443 to 8123
on a static IP.

configuration.yaml:

http:
  base_url: https://xxxxxxxxxx.duckdns.org:8123
  ssl_certificate: /ssl/fullchain.pem
  ssl_key: /ssl/privkey.pem

tryed with and without https://
tryed with port seperately specified

DUCKDNS:

{
  "lets_encrypt": {
    "accept_terms": true,
    "certfile": "fullchain.pem",
    "keyfile": "privkey.pem"
  },
  "token": "xxxxxxx",
  "domains": [
    "xxxxxxxxx.duckdns.org"
  ],
  "seconds": 300
}

duckdns log:
[08:57:35] INFO: OK

I copied my keys into my homeassistant directory and configure the following

http:
  ssl_certificate: ./certificate.pem
  ssl_key: ./privkey.pem

Restarted HA and worked fine.

Maybe its just me, but how exactly is this helpfull?
it would be helpfull to be a bit more specific.
Not everybody is a wizard you know.:slight_smile:
locations of source and destiny?

Try this, works great for me, and no port number required: https://dew-itwebservices.com.au/setting-home-assistant-up-for-secure-access-over-the-internet/

Use a reverse proxy, let it handle the certs and be done with this DuckDNS/let’s encrypt/HA nonsense.
