Pachuqismo, is there a guide here for installing a certificate? Or can you give a brief overview? I'm also using Let's Encrypt certbot but having difficulties.

certbot.exe certonly --standalone command line gives the error: Problem binding to port 80: could not bind to IPv4 or IPv6 (I assumed it failed because I don't use port 80 with calibre. I setup a port forward for 80 to my server but it still failed.)

If I let the server continue to run (it uses port 9090) and issue the command: certbot.exe certonly --webroot and respond with my_domain:9090 it seems to bind without error, but then requests the webroot for my_domain (what's that??)

I'm in over my head. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
