Www. RateLimit Reached

Lyvondria · May 17, 2017, 5:58pm

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better.

My domain is: www.wintex-sports.de

I ran this command: Create through Plesk SSL

It produced this output: If I check Include www. at plesk, it says I have reach the RateLimit.

My operating system is (include version): Debian 7 wheezy

My web server is (include version): Plesk

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: OVH

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): Yes

So my problem is this:

I created a Sub Domain. xxxx.wintex-sports.de. Then I clicked on “Lets Encrypt”. Then I click on “Install” and it works fine. This sub domain is now reachable through https://xxxx.wintex-sports.de.

But when I check the Box “Include an alternative domain name (e.g. www.xxxx.wintex-sports.de) for the domain and each selected alias.” It says I have reached the RateLimit. Do I need to wait now 1 week until I can click it again?

Hello @Lyvondria,

Well 7 days no but 5 yes, you could issue next certificate on Monday 2017-May-22 23:55:00 CEST (more or less).

Keep in mind that there is a limit of 20 certificates per domain per 7 days and you have reached it.

2017/May/17 20:16:10 - Checking certs for wintex-sports.de

I have found 33 non expired certificates for domain wintex-sports.de and its subdomains *.wintex-sports.de

Sorry, you can't issue any certificate, you already issued 20 certificates on last 7 days
You could issue next certificate on Monday 2017-May-22 23:55:00 CEST

Hi @Lyvondria,

It appears that we have the same surname!

In other news, you have apparently issued a pretty large number of certs related to this domain:

https://crt.sh/?Identity=%.wintex-sports.de&iCAID=16418

Some of these have some redundancy or overlap with others, so it looks like you might have been experimenting with the particular combination of names that you wanted. Unfortunately, this activity does count against the rate limit and so you will have to wait some time before more certificates can be issued. The week is counted from the oldest relevant certificate rather than the most recent, so it might not be a week from today.

If you want, you can use the lectl tool to calculate where you stand with respect to the rate limit.

Lyvondria · May 17, 2017, 6:31pm

Thanks for your replys guys. Yeah, i tried something with Plesk and the sub-domain. Basically all my 4 sub-domains are working with https://www. Only one is not working. So I just have to wait till monday when I can activate it again. But https:// is still working but not https://www on the 5th domain which is in my oppinion not a big deal. But i want to have it later on https://www. as well. I realy like how Lets Encrypt work that is for free and stuff. An SSL certificate is veeeeeery expensive and I think u dont need one when you have a Gaming Community like me. So a Big Thanks to Lets Encrypt
