Colleague thought /etc/pki/~ was redundant du to Letsencrypt, so they deleted it *Facepalm*,

As the title says, colleague thought that /etc/pki was redundant since we use /etc/letsencrypt/~ so they rm -dr'd the it.

So now (after removing his admin privileges) I'm trying to fix our SSLs.

I decided to go back to square one and removed the Letsencrypt directories with he hopes that if I reran Certbot that fix it, but it came up With the error "SSLCertificateFile: file '/etc/pki/tls/certs/localhost.crt' does not exist or is empty"

I tried recreating it manually as well as tried resinstalling Open SSL, but that didn't;t work either.

Can any one tell me what the file and permissions for the path need to be, please and thank you.

here's the full output when I tru to rerun Certbot:

Code:sudo certbot --apache

The apache plugin is not working; there may be problems with your existing configuration.
