Wildcard cert not being generated. Duplicate DNS TXT Entries on cPanel.

Open ashleydb opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

First, thanks for creating this. I have it setup and running on my web host covering several domains.

My main domain had a Lets Encrypt certificate for example.com and www.example.com, but I wanted a wildcard certificate, so deleted this one and tried using your solution to generate a new one which covered example.com and *.example.com. However, so far it seems no certificate is being generated.

Is there a way to force a new certificate so I can check this is working, or somewhere I can check for errors? I see nothing output on the command line (no feedback on what the process is doing) if I run the cron job over SSH manually.

I'm not sure if this is related, so I'll put it in this same issue. I can split them if needed. I noticed that each day this cron job runs it creates a new TXT DNS entry in cpanel. They are duplicates and they just keep getting added each day. Does that indicate my DNS entry is not readable, so a new one is being created each time? Or should the script be checking for the entry before trying to create a new one?

Thanks
