I've been using Lets Encrypt certs on this server for years. This morning when the certs were renewed, one of the domains failed to install the new cert with this message Analyzing “tinyislekauai.com”’s DCV results … 9:15:05 AM Trying 1 wildcard domain (*.tinyislekauai.com) to maximize coverage … …

[image] xnau: urn:ietf:params:acme:error:rateLimited (The request exceeds a rate limit) (Rate limit for '/directory' reached) This means your server is hammering the ACME endpoint with 40 requests per second. Please don't do that. See Rate Limits - Let's Encrypt for more info.

You may be hitting a temporary rate limit that we've put in place because of how CPanel is mishandling an expired certificate chain. Please bear with us and keep an eye on this forum and our status page, and also apply updates from CPanel once available.

also suffering from this, went in and disabled the 600+ cpanel webdisk autodiscover etc etc i do not have dns entries for.

thank you, it worked, I got the certs renewed.

I have this problem too On more than 5 different servers my different domains are disabled What is the solution to this problem?

I had this problem and managed to get round it by using the cPanel by Sectigo provider. Now it's fixed I want to go back to using Lets Encrypt but trying to change provider I get this message: API failure: Net::ACME2::x::HTTP::Protocol: The response to the HTTP “HEAD” request from “ https://acme-v02…

The same issue exists on all my servers and the updates cPanel released have been applied. I can't get new SSL certificate for any site.

Probably best to complain at cPanel/AutoSSL.

We’ve now relaxed this temporary rate limit. It’s still in place, but is much more forgiving and should allow you to obtain certificates. Thanks for your patience!
