Issue when creating ssl

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.

My domain is: ccistraining.ca

I ran this command:

sudo /opt/bitnami/bncert-tool

It produced this output:
An error occurred creating certificates with Let’s Encrypt:

acme: error: 429 :: POST :: https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/new-order
:: urn:ietf:params:acme:error:rateLimited :: Error creating new order :: too
many certificates already issued for exact set of domains:
ccistraining.ca,www.ccistraining.ca: see
https://letsencrypt.org/docs/rate-limits/, url:

My web server is (include version):
AWS

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

My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
AWS

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):

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

Hello, I had to install the Let’s encrypt yesterday to my domain around 5 times, as I had to restore the site almost every one hour to the right backup.
So at last when everything seems ok, I tried to create ssl again, and I got this error:

An error occurred creating certificates with Let's Encrypt:

acme: error: 429 :: POST :: https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/new-order
:: urn:ietf:params:acme:error:rateLimited :: Error creating new order :: too
many certificates already issued for exact set of domains:
ccistraining.ca,www.ccistraining.ca: see

I believe it happens because I tried to install it many time into different instance. how long do I need to wait to install the SSL?

Also is that possible to move the Let’s Encrypt form the instance that I have already installed the SSL. I sill have it running as I’m comparing the site between the old site and the one I restored from the backup.

Please help.

7 days for the rate limit to lift.

Yes, you can use one of the previous issued certificates in combination with the corresponding private key.

Thank you, how i would use the one already installed in other instance? I’m using Wordpress Bitnami
My server is under AWS: both instances the old one and the new one are: Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.4.0-1106-aws x86_64)

Please help me and guide me how I can transfer that from the other server to the new one. thanks

Personally, I don’t have a clue: I don’t have any experience with Bitname and those “instances”. Perhaps someone else on the community knows.
