Hello,
I have been having an error for a long time when renewing my ssl certificate.
Is there a tutorial to delete the certificate properly?
To create another one, normally, it is easy to do it, just go to https://192.168.1.12:4443/?app=letsencrypt
Thanks in advance
To renew the certificate, the server must be reachable from outside and not only from your LAN.
It says to check /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log for more details. Normally, they put such information there for a reason, did you check that?
But this will not work because the CA can’t reach your server from outside, and you need port 443 as well open from outside and not 4443.
I have this in the file /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log

these are normally symlinks like:
cert.pem → …/…/archive/nextcloud.example.org/cert28.pem
If you have recreated the certificates several times manually, you have perhaps several overlapping configurations?
That’s probably it.
How to remove certificates if there are any?
in /etc/letsencrypt/live/data.domaine.com-0001 the file data.domain.com-0001 is empty
in /etc/letsencrypt/renewal
I have two files
data.domain.com-0001.conf
data.domain.com.conf
please, how to cleanly delete the certificates i have ?
sudo certbot delete
Will present you with a numbered list of all your certificates, select the number(s) you want to remove.
Thank you very much?
Is it better to disable the certificate in the web interface
https://192.168.1.12:4443/?app=letsencrypt ?
I deleted the certificate but now I can’t access the web interface to create the certificate
https://192.168.1.12:4443/?app=letsencrypt
How do I generate a certificate with the terminal in ssl please?
Finally I managed to access the page, I will generate a new certificate to see if I have no more errors
thank you for your help
