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. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.
My domain is: Vetiraq.com
I ran this command:
sudo certbot --apache -d vetiraq.com -d www.vetiraq.com
It produced this output:
The following errors were reported by the server:
To fix these errors, please make sure that your domain name was
entered correctly and the DNS A/AAAA record(s) for that domain
contain(s) the right IP address.
My web server is (include version):
Apache 2.4.29
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
Ubuntu Linux 18.04
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I donāt know):
Yes
Iām using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):
The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if youāre using Certbot):0.31.0
The site is up and running and was fine I am trying to renew certs that expired yesterday
Certbot appears is doing what it is supposed to do.
LE also appears to be doing what it is supposed to do.
Your site, however, is not āplaying niceā.
May we first see the output of: apachectl -S

So if I read it right, when LE tries to connect to http://vetiraq.com, apache will look within the port 80 section for vetiraq.com and upon not finding it, it will serve up the default port 80 config (www.geekscove.com).
Which I believe is backed up by the response to this request:
I fixed and it works now, I use webmin and it was set to default which looks like to my uneducated mind it was looking at all ports, I told it to look for port 80, reran the command and it now works
Although I am happy that you no longer have a problem Iām a bit sad over the exchangeā¦
You had a problem that you could not figure out.
You searched the web and found this site.
You created an account.
Opened a new topic and explained the problem to the best of your ability.
I raised a question asking for more information.
You provided that information.
I reviewed it and explained how it didnāt look right and showed how the config was not doing what you wanted.
You took that information and apparently fixed the problem.
But that leaves some unfinished businessā¦
Where Iām from, when someone asks for help and gets it, it is customary to give some sort of acknowledgement for that effort and the benefit received.
[we donāt get paid to help anyone here and Iām not asking for money - just some curtesy]
