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.
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or 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):
The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you’re using Certbot):
I have no idea what the above answers are.
I have never used a server before and just built mine. I tred to install security but did something wrong because I can’t get to my server any more. I tried undoning everything by doing the opposite of the install steps but it only got worse.
Can this all be fixed or undone or do I have to rebuild my server?
What output did you see from the commands in the tutorial?
When you say you “can’t get to [your] server anymore”, do you mean just with a web browser, or you also can’t log in to administer it via SSH anymore?
It looks like your site has some broken PHP configuration somehow; do you know what could be causing that? I realize that it showed up when you installed the Let’s Encrypt certificate but I’m not sure whether it’s directly related to that. (For example, it might be that the Apache server just hadn’t been restarted in a long time and that it was broken before, but now that Certbot caused it to restart, it noticed that its PHP configuration was broken.)
