I ran this command: let’s encrypt wordpress plugin
It produced this output: Let’s Encrypt: Registration key is already in use
My web server is (include version): apache, cloud shared server.
My hosting provider, if applicable, is: bigrock.in
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): yes
Hi there, i have used this plugin on many other sites. On this site i am getting this issue that after installing the plugin on a fresh wordpress site. (Have not uploaded any extra theme yet, its a fresh install) There is no other plugin installed yet.
After activating, i vent to the settings and lets encrypt page, i filled the information and clicked on save and as there is a button called “Register Account” if i click that button i see this error —> Let’s Encrypt: Registration key is already in use
Please ask me any information if you need. Thank you guys.
i deleted the folder from the cpanel and then tried to click on the button name “Register Account” then i am getting this error —> No HTTP challenge available for domain www.ardentshopping.com. Original response: {“type”:“urn:acme:error:unauthorized”,“detail”:“No registration exists matching provided key”,“status”:403}
I reset the database and reinstalled the vordpress again.
i installed the plugin again and activated it.
tried again and hit the button register account and i see this error —> Unknown error
Greetings. I’m running into the exact same issue : first I get an “unknown error”, then “Let’s Encrypt: Registration key is already in use” I uninstalled and try installing again with same results. I’m running wordpress 4.9.1. Please advise.
Not yet, i request someone to help us.
Here is my own website --> www.khalsa-website-designers.net where i am running the ssl certificate from let’s encrypt properly but on my client’s site this plugin is giving me issues.
It may be possible to just delete these files (and other letsencrypt certs) and start from scratch - your risk!
My working method was to insert the [wp_encrypt_registration] record into the [wp_options] table for the problematic site from a working SSL site. You will need to change the URL information in your new copy to reflect the problematic site.
Hope this helps
UPDATE
…and, here’s an absolutely horrible hack that disables the registration validation:
In WP-Encrypt - CertificateManager.php
/**
* Retrieves information about a Let's Encrypt account.
*
* @since 1.0.0
* @access public
*
* @param string $location Endpoint URL for the account.
* @return array|WP_Error The response if successful, an error object otherwise.
*/
public function get_account( $location ) {
$response = Client::get()->signed_request( $location, array(
'resource' => 'reg',
) );
if ( is_wp_error( $response ) ) {
return $response;
}
* Horrible Hack to allow account registration to proceed
*
if ( isset( $response['status'] ) && 200 !== absint( $response['status'] ) ) {
return $this->parse_wp_error( $response );
}
*
*/
$response['location'] = $location;
return $response;
}
I’m considering picking up the development on this once I’ve exchanged a few emails with the original dev
Guys, i found one more solution. Actually the issue is related to the account activation. I contacted my hosting team and they said to me to fix this issue via SSH.
I told them that i do not know how to do the SSH. Then they asked me to find the developer who knows. I vent to Fiverr.com and found someone vho actually fixed this issue in 1 hour. I am going to mention his profile link so that you can also contact him and get this issue fixed --> https://www.fiverr.com/juraganet
