    Hi,

    I am updating ISPconfig by --force to reconfigure SSL, and it shows me the error

    Checking / creating certificate for server.smarterwebhosting.com
    Discovered certbot version 2.9.0 with certificate home /etc/letsencrypt
    Discovered acme.sh version 3.1.4 with certificate home /root/.acme.sh
    Using certificate path /etc/letsencrypt/live/server.smarterwebhosting.com_ecc / /etc/letsencrypt/live/server.smarterwebhosting.com_ecc/cert.pem
    Server's public ip(s) (64.32.11.42) not found in A/AAAA records for server.smarterwebhosting.com: 127.0.1.1

    However, i already configured IP as an A record at our DNS provider side.

    The message is ok, its because you have the server name with IP 127.0.1.1 in the hosts file, so the updater can not verify if the setup is ok. The updater then asks you if you want to create the cert anyway and you confirm that to create it.

    I did that server time but when i visit server.smarterwebhosting.com, the ISPConfig UI shows net::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID
