Where to get the domain confirmation string certbot?

Time:05-26

I was following this tutorial:

https://flaviocopes.com/express-letsencrypt-ssl/

…and finally we get to the verification phase!

Create a file containing just this data:

And make it available on your web server at this URL:

Where do I get this long string mentioned there? I didn't copy it when I made the certs with certbot but now I need to confirm my domain with such string. Where is it located?

CodePudding user response:

The string is the output of the process described in the link. It will change every single time you go through this process.

You need to copy it from the command line and create a file containing that (and only that) string.

If you didn't copy it, you need to start the process again and get a new string.
