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.

Hi @chriscross
checking the main page manual there is a "It works" - page visible.
This is the default web page for this server.
The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet
Powered by Glowfish Convenient Web- and Serverhosting.
Is this a page of your server or is this a blocking page from your hoster? So your hoster may block checking the validation file?
Your main configuration looks ok ( https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=schulte-informationmanagement.de ):
Port 80 is open, no wrong redirect, checking a not existing file in /.well-known/acme-challenge sends the expected http status 404 - Not Found.
Try to find your DocumentRoot, then use it.
certbot run -a webroot -i apache -w yourDocumentRoot -d www.schulte-informationmanagement.de -d schulte-informationmanagement.de
Hello Juergen,
I just have deleted the whole domain on this server and tried to start certbot-auto again.
I still get the same error even if the domain is deleted.
Is there anything cached?
Thanks in advanced.
Christian
If you have deleted the vHost, you can't create a certificate.
You need a working http website if you want to use http-01 validation and apache/nginx/webroot as authenticator.
no, i just want to run certbot-auto against the other domains but it stops. with the message:
Error while running apache2ctl configtest.
Action ‘configtest’ failed.
The Apache error log may have more information.

I just want to get it up and running before I configure the new Website again
