Fail to renew ssl cert

Help

I am using Caddy v1.0.4. When trying to renew the ssl cert, I received the following message:

2020/07/08 07:38:22 [INFO] [milanolarry.tk] acme: Obtaining bundled SAN certificate

The problem is I had attempted a renewal almost 13 hours ago and, of course, it failed. Anything wrong? Thanks.

Hey @milanolarry,

That’s a pretty old version of Caddy. I’d recommend upgrading to Caddy 2, it should fix the problem. But you’ll just need to wait for the rate limits to unwind.

Thanks. How long do I need to wait for the rate limits to unwind?

You can refer to their documentation here: Rate Limits - Let's Encrypt
