Hey, I just tried to renew the SSL Certificate for the Iranian Ubuntu Community and it says that it is blacklisted. Anyone can let me know how can I solve the problem and why is it happening at all? ./letsencrypt-auto renew Checking for new version... Requesting root privileges to run letsencrypt.…

You’re welcome! Glad to help.

Hello @jsha , Is this still in effect? I am trying to create a certificate for the chilean WordPress community ( wordpress.cl ), and I get the same error message except that it ends with “Policy forbids issuing for name”. Thank you for your help.

In any case, I played around with the config a bit and eventually got things working by calling certbot w…
