Hi;

i tried active autossl on new account. İ clicked enable autossl button after clicked check button. I used LetsEncrtypt. But they do not active on new account. İ looked logs and they said:

Hello,

Please review the ownership values configured on the following directories to ensure they are owned by the account user and not by "root":

/home/$username/public_html/.well-known/acme-challenge
/home/$username/public_html/.well-known


You can find a thread on this topic at:

SOLVED - AutoSSL can't verify/install certs

Thank you.
