Certificate not created - error

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: icstainless.nl

I ran this command:
free & automatic certificate from let’s encrypt
It produced this output:
Cannot Execute Your Request

My web server is (include version): ?

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Linux /Debian

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: myself : parkstad.net

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):
direct admin

You should upgrade your DirectAdmin. This is an error in their provided Let’s Encrypt ACME client. I.e.: the agreement URL is hardcoded, but not up to date.

The letsencrypt.sh file should have been updated automatically by “CustomBuild” if you’re running DA 1.51 or newer: https://www.directadmin.com/features.php?id=1867 Perhaps your DA version is 1.50 or older? Check out the “See also” link above on how to upgrade it manually.
