Hello, I’ve done a search on this, but from what I can tell, since I used the default Discouse way to get my Let’s Encrypt certificate, it should renew automatically. But that didn’t happen. (see image below) After a search on this forum, I installed certbot using ssh, but when I type in “certbot …

Thank you for that. :slight_smile: It seems like the solution recommended there is to rebuild the app and wait. Well, I did rebuild the app this morning just as a general prophylactic. If that really is the solution, maybe it will fix itself later today? It’s still showing as expired…

what version of linux are you running? did you also do an apt-get update / upgrade ?

It looks like it’s Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.0-159-generic x86_64). And yes, I did an apt-get update and apt-get upgrade and rebooted my server. I was hoping some kind of upgrade would fix the issue…

i just checked your cert. its valid

Thank you, Gavin. It is reporting as Valid in Chrome for me, but when I click on the certificate info itself, it is showing as expired. (see attached screenshot) Are you showing a new, valid expiration date? [2021-10-04_13-00-02] [2021-10-04_13-00-13]

it looks all good on my side. new date and everything

Ah. Good. It’s still not showing with a valid date in Chrome, even after I deleted my browsing cache, but I just checked in Safari, and I do see a new, valid date. So, I guess rebuilding the app was the solution, and hopefully Chrome is just a caching issue. Thank you for checking that out for me.…

no problem. anytime :slight_smile:
