But I have just manually renewed another domain - no problems, and no directory created? So it looks like the method has changed.
The Virtualmin screen wording says "This is done by placing a small temporary file under the website's document directory /home/<domain>/public_html." But not sure if that is the same as it used to be.
It seems there was maybe some other issue with the renewal I had problems with yesterday, but I did see a temp file appearing in acme-challenge. Maybe it now clears up afterwards.
No energy to look further at the moment!
Cheers
