hi hubertkr

this is an issue with the client. looks like the configuration file can’t be parsed.

if you want to issue the certificate manually have a look at:

alternatively log a issue on the github of the client https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/lets-encrypt-part-1-issuing-installing-certificates-andrei-hawke?trk=mp-reader-card

Ok thanks
Manually with zerossl the cert is working fine, on the other side i must care about the renewal myself.
I think the problem with winsimple is the account-path administrator.domain (the point raises an exception)
With my local administrator was no problem, winsimple worked like a charm
