Unable to get certificate - Challenge was invalid
« on: May 13, 2019, 04:23:40 AM »
Hi,

When I click the Certificates button in the settings tab, I get a "Unable to get certificate - Challenge  was invalid" notification.
The process resolved my IP-address but I don't know if that's done by LE or by my app.

  • My server is behind a router.
  • The domain name is in the settings tab of the server window;
  • In the Certificates folder I found the two <domain>.xxx files
  • I have port 80 and 443 open in my router (port forwarding);
  • My firewall has port 80 and 443 open for my application;
  • I use NO-IP as a DNS for my IP-address (Could this be an issue? It isn't when I have an insecure web-server, port 80 only.)
Any hints in the right direction are really welcome.

Cheers,
Rene Simons

see https://www.capesoft.com/docs/NetTalk11/NetTalkWebSecure.htm#Troubleshooting as a starting point.

If that doesn't help, post the log here.

cheers
