I am getting following error can you people guide me how to resolve it.
There were too many requests of a given type :: Error creating new cert :: Too many certificates already issued for exact set of domains: knowbase.sotful.com
Please see the logfiles in /var/log/letsencrypt for more details.
The short answer is that you have obtained 5 certificates for your domain (knowbase.sotful.com) in the past 24 hours, and hence run into the rate limit.
To obtain more certificates you need to wait.
What command are you running ? and what is wrong with the certificates you already have ?
We tried to get the certificate first and getting the error :request failed
: Expected certificate file /etc/letsencrypt/keys/cert.pem was not found
therefore i tried many times can u please give the solution for the above
error.
Can you tell me exactly what commands you were runnning please ?
can you also provide the details from “Please see the logfiles in /var/log/letsencrypt for more details.” It may be easier to paste the log in pastebin.com
yes i did from virtualmin , now i tried with certbot command ./certbot-auto config_changes -d aleresoftware.com -d www.aleresoftware.com and getting the successfull message IMPORTANT NOTES:
Congratulations! Your certificate and chain have been saved at
/etc/letsencrypt/live/aleresoftware.com-0001/fullchain.pem. Your
cert will expire on 2017-01-11. To obtain a new or tweaked version
of this certificate in the future, simply run certbot-auto again
with the “certonly” option. To non-interactively renew all of
your certificates, run “certbot-auto renew”
but when i open the web it show me previous certificate .
Yes, the certificates work fine with SNI on shared IP.
You started with an error of "Too many certificates" for knowbase.sotful.com
You provided the log file for aleresoftware.com - which doesn't have this issue, and hence the log file doesn't show the issue. Can I ask that we deal with one topic at a time please ? or at least make it clear what topic / question you are asking.
Actually the thing is i tried for knowbase.sotful.com it was blocked then. Now, therefore for new domain aleresoftware.com i requested ssl from virtual min i get the error Expected certificate file /etc/letsencrypt/keys/cert.pem was not found so i am so confused what to can you please help for aleresoftware.com how to fixed it .
You would need to check with the virtualmin implementation of LE for that, I’m not familiar with it.
The path looks wrong though, it shouldn’t be /etc/letsencrypt/keys/cert.pem by default (which may be why it’s failing). I don’t know if that is something that’s set in the virtualmin config or not.
