ISPConfig / Debian on VPS and webfoot

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: pnwvw.com

I ran this command: sudo certbot certonly --webroot

It produced this output: Cannot use domain name as lineage name because it contains an illegal character (i.e. filepath separator). Specify an explicit lineage name with --cert-name.

My web server is (include version): Apache with ISPConfig (customer domain)

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

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: ISPconfig on VP

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know): Yes

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

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you're using Certbot): Latest, updated

It seems that regardless of webfoot used, I cannot get past the request for webfoot. There are multiple domains / sites being run on this ISPConfig install,t

Hello @JBryner,

First is webfoot an accidentally typo (or possibly automatic spell correction tool)?

Please show the output sudo certbot --version and
sudo certbot certificates (or if you prefer sudo certbot certificates --cert-name pnwvw.com).

Also show the out put of sudo apachectl -t -D DUMP_VHOSTS.

My apologies, I mistyped. Its asks for the webfoot, and since there are multiple domains set up on the server running Debian and ISPConfig. If the webfoot is for the particular domain, I’ll need to know the specifics of that, if its for the overall server, then that’s another story.

I must be misunderstanding, I assumed you were speaking of

As webroot and webfoot only differ in the r vs f, with r being one row higher and slightly to the left of f for a QWERTY - Wikipedia keyboard.

I think this message is pretty clear, right? You seem to be including some domain names containing one or more irregular characters.

Doesn't the ISPConfig panel have some Let's Encrypt integration by itself by the way?

Please upload the Certbot log if you wish to continue with the Certbot route.
