While my configuration has a variety of errors, I will only address two of my largest issues. PLEX Server 1.17.0.1709-982421575 (macOS) PLEX Client (macOS, Firefox) I currently have my PLEX setup running with nginx, Let’sEncrypt, and a Freenom domain. I have generated certifcates with certbot and a PKCS12 certifcate for PLEX. In PLEX’s network settings, I have put the path to the certificate, the password chosen during its generation (via openssl), and domain name https://[domain].gq:32400. Currently, my server works however, when I try to access it via [https://127.0.0.1:32400](https://127.0.0.1:32400) on my server, I get a “SSL\_ERROR\_BAD\_CERT\_DOMAIN” and a description saying “Firefox does not trust this site because it uses a certificate that is not valid for 127.0.0.1:32400. The certificate is only valid for \*.85d91b22d7d0487881399322a2314960.plex.direct.” Another issue I have is that my domain does not point to my IP if I go to https://[domain].gq, but it does work when going to https://[domain].gq:32400, with the SSL\_ERROR\_BAD\_CERT\_DOMAIN warning. My public IP does direct to PLEX, but with HTTP. My nginx server blocks: [https://pastebin.com/kgkxrs6W](https://pastebin.com/kgkxrs6W) Sorry if my explaination is jumbled, I am very confused by all of my server’s problems and inexperienced. Thanks in advance! ---
