Hello,
Thank you for taking your time to help.
I installed the Ghost blogging platform on my Ubuntu 16.04 droplet and everything went smoothly until I used the wrong email for the Let’s Encrypt configuration. (I know I’m an idiot)…
So, I’ve been doing some digging and I found the email listed in the file ‘accounts.conf’ in the directory ‘/etc/letsencrypt’. Would changing this email mean future renewal notices go to this email? As so far I have no emails from Lets Encrypt about the site.
The site does have a working certificate however it shows HTTPS when connecting to it.
Finally, I have also tried the following command with no success:
sudo certbot register --update-registration -m newemail@example.com
I get the following returned from this command:
“Could not find an existing account to update.”
Any help would be great.
Thank you.
