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: pentilescu.com
I ran this command: docker run -it --rm --name certbot -v “/etc/letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt” -v “/var/lib/letsencrypt:/var/lib/letsencrypt” -p 443:443 -p 80:80 certbot/certbot certonly --server https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
It produced this output:
