I’m using openresty with LUA  
and since yesterday I’m experiencing troubles getting a certificate

nginx log contains the following lines

```

“dehydrated” has not been overriden.

any ideas how to resolve this issue?

Hi @p5ych0

I don't know how that client works. But that looks you should update your client.

Or check

[https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory](https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory)

there is the url of the "termsOfService". Perhaps you can change your config file manual.

my current values are

CA=“[https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/directory](https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/directory)”

# Path to certificate authority license terms redirect (default: [https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/terms](https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/terms))

CA\_TERMS=“[https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/terms](https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/terms)”

# Path to license agreement (default: )

#LICENSE=""

changing to v01 didn’t help

v1 is deprecated. Read

Support ends 2019-10-31. So you should

- update your client to use v2 (or, if this isn't possible)
- switch to another client

wrong. Read the v01 - directory, there is another path and file.
