I can't configure ssl certificate error shown: Failed authorization procedure. www.blankslateit.com (http-01): urn:ietf:params:acme:error:unauthorized :: The client lacks sufficient authorization :: Invalid response from http://www.blankslateit.com/.well-

  1. You didn't include the "www"
  2. Used the production system for testing
  3. Wasted a real cert

I figure out how to update certificate to include domain with www
Also certificate is not wasted, don't worry about that.

I fixed the issue and also updated the certificate for able to work with www
Let me explain further what I have done so you can get idea,
certbot certonly --cert-name blankslateit.com -d blankslateit.com -d www.blankslateit.com --dry-run
Then selected nginx as installer. And it asks for adding domain with www.blankslateit.com. So by this command you can add or remove any domain from certificate.

You are going to teach me how certificates work?
Let me tell you what I know:

  • Certificates can't be modified.
  • Any change to a certificate requires issuing a new cert.

See exactly how many certs have ever have issued to your domain with:
crt.sh | blankslateit.com
Three certificates have been issued to your domain in the last two days.
You only need one - So, two certificates have been issued needlessly (yes, wasted).
