- The below error is observed in the following output :
FW-01 # diagnose sys acme status-full fw-01.test.net
"when": "Sun, 16 Jun 2024 05:58:59 GMT",
"type": "renewal-error",
"detail": "Unsuccessful in contacting ACME server at <https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory>.
If this problem persists, check the network connectivity from the Apache server to the ACME server.
Also, older servers might have trouble verifying the certificates of the ACME server. It is possible to check if it is possible to contact it manually via the curl command.
Sometimes, the ACME server might be down for maintenance, so failing to contact it is not an immediate problem. Apache will continue retrying this.
- Although the FortiGate system was showing the correct date/time :
FW-01 # execute time
current time is: 08:12:51
last ntp sync:Fri Jan 5 07:53:04 2024
FW-01 # execute date
current date is: 2024-01-05
- Rebooting the firewall does not resolve the issue.
- A possible solution is to run 'diagnose sys acme purge-all' command to wipe the status file and clear any internal status for the ACME client and start a new attempt from the FortiGate's configuration. It also restarts the ACME client.
- The similar output should be visible as below :
FW-01 # diagnose sys acme status-full fw-01.test.net
