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. crt.sh | example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My web server is (include version): iis
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Server 2008 R2 (Yes, I know it's EOL, Yes I know it has problems, Yes, I would have upgraded years ago if I could have, Yes, we are going to retire it ASAP. If you are just going to say upgrade your stupid server moron, please, I beg you from the bottom of my heart, just don't... that's completely unhelpful right now. Thank you)
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know): Yes
I'm using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):
The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version
or certbot-auto --version
if you're using Certbot): 1.15 (it's the only one that actually worked, if I install later versions, I can't run any certbot commands, it can't find them)
I am just trying to get this server to limp through until we can replace it. I don't want to spend any extra $$$ if we don't have to, hence, here I am with Let's Encrypt. I can see it put a file in the acme-challenge folder, but then it just disappears and I get the 'Invalid Response' error. The DNS seems to be all resolving ok from what I can tell. The site works fine. But I do feel I must be missing something obvious here. Any help (besides "Upgrade Your server, moron") is greatly appreciated.
