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.
My domain is: NA.
I ran this command:
Certbot Instructions :
$ sudo /opt/certbot/bin/pip install --upgrade pip
It produced this output:
$ sudo /opt/certbot/bin/pip install certbot certbot-apache
