There were too many requests of a given type

hello what about community, first time I work with certificates and finished with this

An unexpected error occurred:
There were too many requests of a given type :: Error creating new order :: too many certificates already issued for exact set of domains: gps.seltron.com.do: see Rate Limits - Let's Encrypt - Free SSL/TLS Certificates

I was doing tests with a drop of digital ocean and I didn't have enough knowledge and made several certificate requests, I had a person who helped me with this part but it is no longer there, is there a possible solution?

My domain is:
gps.seltron.com.do

I ran this command:
certbot certonly
-d gps.seltron.com.do
--noninteractive
--standalone
--agree-tos
--register-unsafely-without-email

It produced this output:
An unexpected error occurred:
There were too many requests of a given type :: Error creating new order :: too many certificates already issued for exact set of domains: gps.seltron.com.do: see Rate Limits - Let's Encrypt - Free SSL/TLS Certificates

Hi @julioalvarezrd,

There's no way to reset this rate limit, so your main options in this case are:

  • Add an additional subdomain on the same certificate (then this particular rate limit no longer applies),
  • Wait a week, or
  • Use a different ACME CA.
