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:brofastet.se

Hi @sofievingstedt

if you don't have root access and if you don't use a control panel: How do you manage your server?

And what's the client you use?

PS: Checked your domain - https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=brofastet.se

You have a new certificate created:

Issuer not before not after Domain names LE-Duplicate next LE
Let's Encrypt Authority X3 2020-03-12 2020-06-10 brofastet.se, guldfagelnarenarestaurang.se, kalmarsundsrestauranger.nu, kalmarsundsrestauranger.se, www.brofastet.se, www.guldfagelnarenarestaurang.se, www.kalmarsundsrestauranger.nu, www.kalmarsundsrestauranger.se - 8 entries duplicate nr. 1

And you use it:

Looks like you had only a temporary problem.
