Question
Certbot Error - Cannot find a VirtualHost matching domain
I’m running into an error I can’t find much information on when trying to run certbot on my new LEMP droplet. Followed the instructions here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secure-nginx-with-let-s-encrypt-on-ubuntu-16-04
I found this thread but I just run into an error when restarting nginx: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/trouble-w-certbot-let-s-encrypt-on-nginx-ubuntu14-04
