Good day. I create a certificate on the SSL FOR FREE website, for the rpz.ru domain. I have an error when creating a wildcard. Help me please. How can I get Wilcard? Or have previous employees tried to register and already have an account?
Account registration Failed. Please try again in hours. There is a limit of 10 registrations per IP 3 hours:
Error creating new account:: too many registrations for this ip.
status 429
If you want to create a certificate with a wildcard and with the main domain, you need two entries (not only one) with the same domain name and different TXT entries.
Additional: There is another topic - same problem - Rate limit error
And there is a Letsencrypt rate limit:
You can create a maximum of 10 Accounts per IP Address per 3 hours. You can create a maximum of 500 Accounts per IP Range within an IPv6 /48 per 3 hours. Hitting either account rate limit is very rare, and we recommend that large integrators prefer a design using one account for many customers.
So if Sslforfree creates a new account per user, this limit is hitted.
But that's only a problem of that tool, not a general Letsencrypt limit.
