Domain renewal is not working

Help

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: *.digi-was.com

I ran this command for creating the cert : sudo certbot certonly --manual --preferred-challenges=dns --email roshan.thomas@xxxxxx.com --server https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory --agree-tos -d digi-was.com -d *.digi-was.com
For renewal : sudo certbot renew
It produced this output:

digi-was.com is being served by Azure DNS servers, not Gandi. Did you change DNS providers recently?

no , initial provider in Azure only .

Is any thing I missed while cert creation ?

I don't know, you tell me? Your initial cert creation command specified the --manual plugin (which by the way cannot be renewed by running certbot renew without authentication scripts), but for some reason your renewal configuration file at /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/digi-was.com.conf seems to be configured to use the certbot-dns-gandi authenticator plugin? That's just weird.

There also exists a certbot-dns-azure DNS plugin (third party, available on PyPi: certbot-dns-azure · PyPI, docs: Welcome to certbot-dns-azure’s documentation! — certbot-dns-azure 0 documentation). You could perhaps try that as Azure seems to be your DNS provider? Note: I don't know anything about Azure, so YMMV.
