Originally created by @Zocker1999NET on GitHub (Jun 3, 2021).

tested on Arch Linux and dehydrated version 0.7.1 (git revision unknown)

If domains.txt defines the following certificates

example.com www.example.com
example.net
www.example.net

and for example the challenge for www.example.com fails (due to DNS changes or anything else),
then the certificates for example.net and www.example.net will not be renewed even if the challenges there would work.

This should be fixed so dehydrated tries to renew all certificates and complains about all where the challenge failed instead of just complaining about the first failed.

Not a bug. There is a documented keep-going flag on the cli that allows dehydrated to continue after an issue occurred.
