My apache2/sites-available/mydomain.com.conf file <VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin webmaster@mydomain.com ServerName mydomain.com ServerAlias www.mydomain.com DocumentRoot /var/www/mydomain ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined </VirtualHost>
When I run the following: sudo certbot --apache -d mydomain.com -d www.mydomain.com
I get the following output: Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log Plugins selected: Authenticator apache, Installer apache Cert not yet due for renewal
You have an existing certificate that has exactly the same domains or certificate name you requested and isn’t close to expiry. (ref: /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/mydomain.com.conf)
What would you like to do?
1: Attempt to reinstall this existing certificate 2: Renew & replace the cert (limit ~5 per 7 days)
Select the appropriate number [1-2] then [enter] (press ‘c’ to cancel): 1 Keeping the existing certificate No vhost exists with servername or alias of mydomain.com. No vhost was selected. Please specify ServerName or ServerAlias in the Apache config. No vhost selected
IMPORTANT NOTES:
What have I done wrong and how can I resolve it?

Hey, @damianyates
Can you check if the saved SSL’s fullchain in
/etc/letsencrypt/live/mydomain.com/fullchain.pem
is the one you need?If that is correct you can copy the files to the directory where your Apache conf SSL block is checking against.
