• I just installed wordpress on my LEMP server. When I attempted to access it to set it up via Firefox browser it came back with the the following popup:

    You have chosen to open:
    which is: application/octet-stream (420 bytes)
    from https://mydomain.com

    Before installing wordpress I set up a test site with all of the components of the LEMP server. I had configured my firewall for https and had acquired my SSL certificates. This site worked perfectly.

    Given that my test site worked properly, the problem has to be in the wordpress installation. To install wordpress, I followed the instructions in the tutorial “How to Install WordPress with LEMP on Ubuntu 18.04” to the letter.

    Does anyone have an idea what went wrong and how to fix it?

    Here’s another piece of information.
    when I attempt to get to wordpress dmesg gives the following:

    [Wed Jul 24 19:19:50 2019] [UFW BLOCK] IN=enp4s0 OUT= MAC=01:00:5e:00:00:01:20:c0:47:13:01:15:08:00 SRC=192.168.1.1 DST=224.0.0.1 LEN=36 TOS=0x00 PREC=0xC0 TTL=1 ID=56518 DF PROTO=2

    Something similar happened to me awhile back and it turned out that my system clock had been set back to zulu time and therefore the encryption failed and the access was blocked.

    At some point in this installation, the system clock was set back to zulu time again. I’ve been told mysql, php and certbot all maintain clocks and I’m wondering if they could be out of synch. But I have no idea how to check each of them.
