  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.

Resolved Error while trying to use Let's encrypt on domain alias

New Pleskian
Hello everyone,

I just updated the Let's encrypt extension and wanted to secure the domain alias for a domain.
I selected the specific alias and clicked on the "Renew"-Button.
But all i got was the following error:
Code:
 Let's Encrypt SSL certificate installation failed: Install certificate failure: Unable to set certificate name :
It would be great if anybody could help me solving this issue.
 
Hi KarlmitC,

you might know, that Let's Encrypt places it's log files at "/var/log/letsencrypt" and "/usr/local/psa/var/modules/letsencrypt/logs". Consider to inspect the log - files or/and attach them to your thread, so that people willing to help you have something to start with their investigations.
 
I think you want to go to the main domain (that the aliases point to) and set the Let's Encrypt settings in there. There should be a setting to add the aliases to the main domain's certificate, then renew it right there to secure them.
 
I already looked into those directories and unfortunately there aren't any logs for this date.

I did exactly that.

After trying to set this up now multiple time it seems like I reached the maximum of certificates issued in a specific time span.
So it looks like it is issuing the certificates but not assigning them to the domains.
