Certificate auto-renewal does not work correctly (profesional Help if possible)

Ok, NGINX autorenew certificate, can’t renew, I follow some post in this forum, deleteing all SSL certificates, and executin ssl_certificate.py

I solved with linked to new cert. (Manual)

Later have problem with dns and update external dns:

_25._tcp.xxxxxx.com

_443._tcp.xxxxx.com

Need help to solve Autorenew of certificates.

Thanks in advance.

Ive seen this help with people in the past:

cd /home/user-data/ssl/lets_encrypt/accounts/acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory 

ls 
rm -rf  <RANDOM DIRECTORY GUID>

Then, go into the web-ui and go to the TLS / ssl certificates

Click the provision button.


Also is your box hosted on VPS or are you behind a firewall/router hosting this yourself?

I’ve seen in the past where Let’s Encrypt will try to trigger the certificate install from servers in other countries and people are blocking other countries via firewall rules, pfBlocker, etc.

This might fail because registering happens during setup. Now that you have deleted all ssl files, you might need to re-register by running manually: certbot register --register-unsafely-without-email --agree-tos --config-dir $STORAGE_ROOT/ssl/lets_encrypt
$STORAGE_ROOT being probably /home/user-data but might be different in your case.

I tried everything you tell me here, but since I was very urgent, I made a backup copy and a clean installation on the same server

now work fine.

The problem before are with TLSA.
