Hello. 
Please provide more information.
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.

Congratulations, all renewals succeeded. The following certs have been renewed:
/etc/letsencrypt/live/highwaydelight.in/fullchain.pem (success)

Hi @manojrammurthy,
--dry-run means something like âtestâ or âexperimentâ and itâs meant for use to see if your configuration would work for a renewal. If you want to renew the certificate, you should instead use certbot renew, without the --dry-run option.
