Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. crt.sh | example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.
I know the previous admin has installed Letsencrypt certi fo Nginx, but I need Apache certi. The previous certi is visible in the log files. I tried this on to identical machines where both times it is the same outcome. Please advice.
My domain is: http://81.19.123.73/ valoliitto.fi
I ran this command:
COMMANDS TO INSTALL ============
sudo apt install snapd
sudo snap install core
sudo snap refresh core
sudo snap install --classic certbot
sudo ln -s /snap/bin/certbot /usr/bin/certbot
sudo certbot --apache
It produced this output:
Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log
The requested apache plugin does not appear to be installed
