New ssl certificate on new server

Help
1

Hi,

I currently have a working e-commerce site with another ssl issued by godaddy.

I am now building a new website and will eventually move everything over once the new server is ready. I tried to create and install a new Let’s Encrypt ssl certificate for the new server using Certbot but failed on the challenge test during the certificate creation process. I guess it is because the new ssl refers to the same domain name as my current site.

Is there anyway to get around this so that I can installed the new Let’s Encrypt cert on the new server without affecting the working of my current site. Please advise. Thank you.

Regards,
Simon

Then read something about challenge types:

So your solution: Use temporary dns validation + manual. That should always work.
