All renewal attempts failed. The following certs could not be renewed:
/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.bureaubureau.dk/fullchain.pem (failure)
/etc/letsencrypt/live/bureaubureau.dk/fullchain.pem (failure)
2 renew failure(s), 0 parse failure(s)

Can anyone tell me how to fix this issue. I have gone through similar questions but nothing helped. So please have a look!

Hi @awaisweb

that's a curious error.

Perhaps first step: Update your certbot.

If that doesn't help:

Check the options

https://certbot.eff.org/docs/using.html

Make a backup of your config files

/etc/letsencrypt/renewal

then delete these, then start new.

certbot -d www.bureaubureau.dk -d bureaubureau.dk.conf

so Certbot should ask.

I followed your tips and removed the certbot and i receive the following trace after executing the below command:

Looks like this debian - version isn't longer supported.

There is a switch to supress the auto-update. Check the documentation.

Which documentation?
