Running FreePBX version 16. Had a message my certificate is expiring. Trying to create a new one and getting the following error. I have deleted and generated a new one on a warm spare, but the main gets the error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In this case, the forum didn’t garble it. The usage message really is that unreadable.
The real problem here is that we don’t know the command line contents, only the error message.
If someone has garbled something, by copying and pasting witthout proper markup, you can recover the raw input using, for this thread, using this format of URL:
