Hello,
After changed hosting provider where I didn't have this problem (using systemd)...
Problem:
Using Docker, just the time to take down my webserver container to update a certificate...
When I try to launch a certificate update by shell I receive the error "can't set attribute error".
Possible cause:
I realized to have forgotten in place the cron job of scheduled cert renew by "certbot -q renew".
Indeed my log is full of pending requests with "too many requests error" and "can't set attribute error"
From 20231214 03:44 and before with an "Address already is use" error (due to docker)
What is happend is exactly this:
- I took down my docker webserver container
- I did to update the certificate with a new subdomain of 5mode "certbot certonly --cert-name 5mode -d 5mode.com, www.5mode.com, bot.5mode.com
- I got the error "can't set attribute" (coming as letter one)
Given: Rate Limits - Let's Encrypt
I would like to ask is it possible to clear my Pending Authorization Requests to let me work
again over my domains?
Indeed what could be the possible solutions to circumvent the limit problem arrived at the
1st gen 2024 when my certificates will start to expire if the situation gets not solved before?
And are we sure we all need this cron job automatically installed?
Thanks,
== Daniele Bonini

My domain is:
various, eg. 5mode.com
I ran this command:
submitting a "certbot certonly --cert-name 5mode.com -d etc."
It produced this output:
