scambra Posted yesterday at 11:04 AM Posted yesterday at 11:04 AM I'm getting an error email regarding let's encrypt certificates, but it must be wrong because I have the certificate working. I created a certificate only for webmail, not for the domain, because the domain is hosted in other hosting. The certificate for webmail.activescaffold.eu is issued, and it's valid to February 17, 2025. But I get an error email like this: Could not secure domains of scambra (login scambra) with Let`s Encrypt certificates. Please log in to Plesk and secure the domains listed below manually. Securing of the following domains has failed: ** 'activescaffold.eu' ** Invalid response from https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/authz/2056443127/446212040265.

Please log in to Plesk and renew the certificates listed below manually. Renewal of the following Let`s Encrypt certificates has failed: <none> The following Let`s Encrypt certificates have been renewed without some of their Subject Alternative Names: <none> So it seems as it's trying to issue a certificate for the domain, which is in other hosting. Also, I don't understand why it says Renewal of the following Let`s Encrypt certificates has failed: <none>

Also, I don't understand why it says Yes that is expected. you would need to have it pointed to Johnny before the certificate can be issued from Plesk.
wolstech Posted yesterday at 12:41 PM Posted yesterday at 12:41 PM @MoneyBroz He specifically said he hosts the domain elsewhere intentionally. He's only using us for email and a single subdomain called demo. This error is because Plesk doesn't support hosting a domain only for its webmail. The entire domain has to be hosted here for the auto-SSL to work properly. It will sort of work as you've seen, but it is going to constantly produce errors. The only way to stop these error emails is to disable the automatic SSL certificate installation entirely. There is no option to tell Plesk "issue only a webmail cert" since its not a supported scenario. Do you want me to turn this function off for your domain?
scambra Posted 21 hours ago Author Posted 21 hours ago Ok, thanks. I have removed the certificate, I don't want to cause troubles by having something trying to get a certificate again and again. I was confused, because when requesting a new certificate, there is a checkbox to secure the domain name, and a checkbox to secure the webmail, and unchecking the domain name worked, I got the certificate for webmail, but I started to get error emails.
wolstech Posted 19 hours ago Posted 19 hours ago It’s possible to do it when you issue the manually. The issue is that the automatic renewal tool doesn’t let you exclude the domain itself. You can issue a certificate manually every 90 days with just the webmail selected and that will be just fine.
scambra Posted 43 minutes ago Author Posted 43 minutes ago I deleted the certificate, but I got the error again, you may need to delete something
