Too many certificates already issued for exact set of domains

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but

I ran this command: sudo certbot --apache -d [domain name]

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: […]: see https://letsencrypt.org/docs/rate-limits/

My web server is (include version): apache2

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu 18.04

I can login to a root shell on my machine : yes

I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): no

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you’re using Certbot):

My domain name has a lot of valide certificate (I have see it on crt.sh), but I delete all files.conf, so now I don’t know how connect my domain name with certificate…

What’s your domain name?

What does “sudo certbot certificates” show?

You already have at least five certificates – why do you need another one? Were the files deleted? Is Apache doing something wrong?

Edit: Fix command. I mistakenly wrote “sudo certificates” instead of “sudo certbot certificates”. :sweat:

Thank you for reply,

I have created an other subdomain name

So now, this is not neccessary to resolve this problem.

Thank you.
