Using the website directory /var/www/html .. .. request failed : Failed to request certificate

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 only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is:secureus.ir

I ran this command:let script certificate request

It produced this output:raceback (most recent call last):

Is /var/www/html/ also the actual DocumentRoot of that website?

Ah, I also see your site is behind CloudFlare? What CloudFlare settings do you have enabled?

The path you provide acme_tiny should be exactly the same as the DocumentRoot directive used in Apache.

Could you perhaps provide some of those test files for us?
