My domain is:

I ran this command:
letsencrypt certonly -d panel.techturtlehosting.nl

It produced this output:

Hi @WoofFighter

you have two ip-addresses - ipv4 and ipv6. But the content is different:

IPv4IPv6Discrepancy
Warning
panel.techturtlehosting.nl has both AAAA (IPv6) and A (IPv4) records. While they both appear to be accessible on the network, we have detected that they produce differing results when sent an ACME HTTP validation request. This may indicate that the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses may unintentionally point to different servers, which would cause validation to fail.
[Address Type=IPv4,Server=nginx/1.10.3 (Ubuntu),HTTP Status=404] vs [Address Type=IPv6,Server=Apache/2,HTTP Status=404]

You can remove the ipv6-address, create the certificate, later fix the ipv6 - problem.

Hey,
When I try it again I get the error that nginx is running on it but I turned it off

Did you hit the "rerun test"?

Now it's green:

All OK!

No issues were found with panel.techturtlehosting.nl. If you are having problems with creating an SSL certificate, please visit the Let's Encrypt Community forums and post a question there.

PS: So creating a new certificate should work.

I didnt hit it but I get the error that the port is taken and by nginx but I turned it off (Using service nginx stop and systemctl stop nginx)

and I exandently press reset instead of restart

But it works now!! THanks @JuergenAuer

Yep, it works now. Perhaps add a redirect http -> https, http://panel.techturtlehosting.nl/ shows the simple "Welcome to nginx!" - page.

Now it shows more :joy: but how to close this?
