Errors i need 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. crt.sh | 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: www.owm-power.online

I ran this command: lego --tls --email="info@own-power.online" --domains="own-power.online" --domains="www.own-power.online" --path="C:\Bitnami\joomla-3.9.26-0\letsencrypt" run

It produced this output:

My web server is (include version): Bitnami Joomla 3.10

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Windows 10 Education

My hosting provider, if applicable, is:

I can login to a root shell on my machine I don't know):

I'm using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):

No I just use the Windows CMD app

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you're using Certbot): I do not have a clue

You will need to stop the Apache server before you run the lego command.

Sorry, I missed something the first time I looked at this.

You're currently pointing your domain to your IP address using an "iframe redirection" (sometimes called "domain cloaking" or "domain masking"), which isn't going to work for the purposes of SSL.

Rather than using an iframe hosted by your domain registrar, you would need to:

  1. Remove the iframe redirection
  2. Set up a DNS A record for own-power.online to point to 66.18.89.91
  3. Do the same for www.own-power.online
  4. Make sure port 80 and port 443 are open on your server
  5. Try the command again.
