Host login page not showing as secure when I add port

I have the Lets Encrypt certificate installed. It shows installed for my host.domain.com

whynopadlock shows I am all good for both my host URL and host URL with :8083

If I visit host.domain.com I get the under construction page and it shows secure on some of my browsers. Not all of them, its like this weird touch a go thing there. The moment I add the 8083 port it says not secure

I have ran the “v-add-letsencrypt-host” and it just takes a pause then goes back to the prompt while telling me nothing.

I unchecked all the SSL stuff for the domain and saved and then rechecked it all and saved. It supposedly set me back at 90 days when I did that.

None of the terminal commands I have seen on here have done anything besides take a pause then go back to the main prompt.

When I renewed my lets encrypt certificate in April I am fairly certain all was good.

All my sites are fine, its only the main host domain for getting into Hestia that has an issue.

I know I have seen other people with this same issue and what worked for them, I can not seem to duplicate.

I am very new to having my own VPS so it could be just me missing something. But I am usually really good at research and duplication of steps and this time I have hit a wall and breaking down to ask for help.

If you share your actual domain name, we can check it on our end.

And here is the results on nopadlock lol https://www.whynopadlock.com/results/59a1419c-00c2-4e56-92e9-af3c467e4070

host.fairydesigned.com has the correct certificate, but host.fairydesigned.com:8083 is using a certificate that is only valid for fairydesigned.com

❯ ssl_check host.fairydesigned.com

issuer=C = US, O = Let's Encrypt, CN = R10

Could you please run this command as root? (replace YourUser with the user that has assigned the domain host.fairydesigned.com

v-update-host-certificate YourUser host.fairydesigned.com

Sorry, I’ve edited my previous message, I forgot to include the arguments.

I just did it again, I did try this yesterday and this was one of the commands that just takes a pause and goes back to the prompt. As you can see in this screenshot. Upload and share screenshots and images - print screen online | Snipboard.io

Well, now it worked:

❯ ssl_check host.fairydesigned.com 8083
2025-05-29 16:00 - Checking host.fairydesigned.com on port 8083

issuer=C = US, O = Let's Encrypt, CN = R10
subject=CN = host.fairydesigned.com
notBefore=May 29 02:49:59 2025 GMT
notAfter=Aug 27 02:49:58 2025 GMT
SANs: host.fairydesigned.com

pffft of course LMAO, yep showing secure on my one browser, but not on my main one that I’m working on. Probably need to clear cookies now.

Thank you for your help.
