Trouble with invalid acme challenge response

[schmitty42]

I’m having trouble getting a valid acme challenge response, whether for single or multiple domains.
This example in particular is for multiple domains.

If it makes a difference, I have a wordpress site currently set up on this domain (hosted on this server) and I have auto-redirect to https set up in the htaccess file.
I did this with another wordpress site no problem, and I’m pretty sure the htaccess folder was the same as it is now, so I don’t think that’s the problem.

I’m using Acme.sh via SSH

I ran this command:
acme.sh --issue --webroot ~/public_html/ -d lennar.deckandbasement.com -d mihomes.deckandbasement.com -d deckandbasement.com --force

It produced this output:

You have told acme.sh that those three websites are all served from the same directory (~/public_html/).

This probably isn’t the case - they most likely exist in their own dedicated directories, right?

The correct approach would look more like:

acme.sh --issue \
-d lennar.deckandbasement.com -w ~/public_html/path/to/first/site \
-d mihomes.deckandbasement.com -w ~/public_html/path/to/second/site \
-d deckandbasement.com -w ~/public_html/path/to/third/site
