Following the instructions here:
When I get to the step to add the ppa …
I ran this command:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot
It produced this output:
Cannot add PPA: ‘ppa:certbot/certbot’.
Please check that the PPA name or format is correct.
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
Ubuntu 14.04.3
It’s misleading, but add-apt-repository
can say this if there is any sort of issue connecting to https://launchpad.net/.
For example:
- Launchpad is down.
- Your DNS resolver is broken.
- Your clock is wrong.
- Your HTTP proxy is malfunctioning.
- You don’t have IPv4 connectivity.
Do you know of any issues? What happens if you run “wget https://launchpad.net/
”?

It seems in another thread you've confirmed that the problem is that your system couldn't make DNS queries:

Correct … once necessary domains were added to /etc/hosts I was able to proceed.
Now, to get the server admin to figure out that problem.
Thanks!
