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: workfolders.maraisviljoen.co.za

I ran this command: le64.exe -generate-missing -key account.key -csr domain.csr -csr-key domain.key -crt domain.crt -domains "workfolders.maraisviljoen.co.za" -path "C:\inetpub\wwwroot.well-known\acme-challenge" -unlink -renew 60 -live -handle-as http

It produced this output:
2023/01/09 15:49:21 [ Crypt::LE client v0.38 started. ]

Found the issue. The ISP was having a routing issue and it was stopping some requests getting through. Problem is now cleared up.

OK, glad to see it's sorted out - the verification of the server cert helps with the potential "man-in-the-middle" situations, so if the ISP for some reason lands you on their own page when you request a specific resource (due to filtering or some other issues), this would indeed trigger an error.

I have also replied on Github - if you feel that it's indeed resolved, please add a comment there, and I will close that issue.

Thanks.
