Reference Old certificate from godaddy getting in the way
I’m seeing an error for loutilities.com (Attempting to renew cert (loutilities.com) from /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/loutilities.com.conf produced an unexpected error: The manual plugin is not working; there may be problems with your existing configuration.), but not for www.loutilities.com, configuration of which is used for both www.loutilities.com and loutilities.com.
I think I just need to delete the /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/loutilities.com.conf file. But is there a cleaner/better way to get rid of this error?
My domain is: loutilities.com
I ran this command: sudo certbot renew --dry-run
It produced this output: (abbreviated for clarity)
