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:
I ran this command:
It produced this output:
My web server is (include version):
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): ubuntu 20
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know): Yes
I'm using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): no
The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version
or certbot-auto --version
if you're using Certbot): 2.5.0
I am using Entrust for CA and would like to use ACME protocol for CA renewal. As per Entrust official document it does support ACME. I am following this document : How to use ACME to install SSL/TLS certificates in Entrust Certificate Services (Apache)
