Knowledge base → SSL renewal error - invalid response from .well-known/acme-challenge 404

[Shared hosting]
Date of publication: 18.01.2024

When switching a domain, for example, to a constructor, the domain begins to refer to third-party servers and, when trying to renew the certificate, does not receive the required response.

For this reason, the hosting control panel sends an email to notify the owner that the certificate renewal failed. If you deliberately switched your domain for service to another platform, simply delete the SSL certificate in the control panel and it will no longer try to renew it and you will stop receiving such notifications.

Example message:

Could not secure domains of XXXXX (login XXXXXX) with Let`s Encrypt certificates. Please log in to Plesk and secure the domains listed below manually.
Securing of the following domains has failed:

** 'XXX' **
Invalid response from https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/authz-v3/XXXX.
Details:
Type: urn:ietf:params:acme:error:unauthorized
Status: 403
Detail: Invalid response from http://XXXXX: "<
The following domains have been secured without some of their Subject Alternative Names:

<none>

Could not renew Let`s Encrypt certificates for XXXXX (login XXXXX). Please log in to Plesk and renew the certificates listed below manually.
Renewal of the following Let`s Encrypt certificates has failed:

<none>

The following Let`s Encrypt certificates have been renewed without some of their Subject Alternative Names:

<none>

Legend:
[+] This domain is secure. The domain's SSL/TLS certificate from Let`s Encrypt has been issued/renewed.
[-] This domain is not secure. Either the domain's SSL/TLS certificate from Let`s Encrypt could not be issued/renewed or the domain name was excluded from the certificate. Renew the certificate manually or request a new one to secure this domain.​

Go to your hosting control panel, select the domain specified in the letter from the list and open the ssl certificates section. It will say that the certificate has expired, delete this certificate, and if necessary, when you switch the domain to hosting again, you can issue it again.
