Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/binwiederhier/ntfy/issues/845

I have inserted the following in server.yml using sudo nano /etc/ntfy/server.yml

base-url: "http://ntfy.mooo.com"
listen-http: ":80"
listen-https: ":443"
key-file: "/etc/letsencrypt/live/ntfy.mooo.com/privkey.pem"
cert-file: "/etc/letsencrypt/live/ntfy.mooo.com/fullchain.pem"
cache-file: "/var/cache/ntfy/cache.db"
attachment-cache-dir: "/var/cache/ntfy/attachments"

After that my ntfy.service is not working and ntfy is not accessible either via http or https. Here is the output of sudo systemctl restart ntfy.service

● ntfy.service - ntfy server
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/ntfy.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

My all certificates are ending at pem. User has full permission to /etc/letsencrypt/live/ntfy.mooo.com. Any idea where am i doing wrong? How can i make this correct.

journalctl -u ntfy

That's going to have more info of what's wrong. systemctl status only rpints the last few lines.
