I just build a new server to replace an old one (hardware change).
I use the letsencrypt and certbot Debian packages and I’m trying to test a renew of my 2 certs using certbot.
I have 2 virtual hosts : cabinet-gouraud.fr and mail.cabinet-gouraud.fr and I I’d like to renew both certs (the live ones are currently working).
I add into the LE config 2 scripts in pre and post-hook to start and stop apache.
When I run certbot, it seems thats the first cert renewal works but not the second one.
I feel it is because the process try to renew the second cert while apache has been stopped.
Is there any way to renew both certs with only one stop/star apache ?
(I also tried : certbot --apache -d cabinet-gouraud.fr -d mail.cabinet-gouraud.fr --pre-hook “service apache2 stop” --post-hook “service apache2 start” but still same issue.
As I’m absolutely not familiar with LE and SSL mechanisms, any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks.

The following certs could not be renewed:
