nextcloud.enable-https -h shows
Run without any arguments this script will obtain a certificate from Let's Encrypt and automatically keep it up to date.
So in my opinion, the renewal of the cerificate will start automaticaly. Is this right?
@Nemskiller
how to set time to sync?
means how to set it to do after 90 days or like that?
or will it check daily?
It depends on what you enter in your crontab.
The command (not for nextcloud box) is letsencrypt renew
You can do it every day or everyweek, itâs not a problem letsencrypt will say :
No certificate to renew or Renewing certificate near expirying
Look how to use crontab
But what is the right way for the box? Will it work automaticaly or not?
Hi i also have the problem that auto renew seems not to work (don´t know where to check) and that letsencrypt renew command is not supported!
Any help on this?
Yes, the auto renew seems not to work, because i got a new mail today from the Letâs Encrypt Team
âYour certificate (or certificates) for the names listed below will expire in 9 days (on 13 Jan 17 13:13 +0000). Please make sure to renew your certificate before then, or visitors to your website will encounter errors.â
What can the nextbox users do ? Is this a bug or a feature ? 
I would also like to know how the lets encrypt certificate will be renewed on Nextcloud Box, and when it will be renewed?
Couldnât find anything from crontab or /etc/cron* which would keep it renewed.

There was a bug. After updating to the newest version of the snap certificate renewal works for me.
There is a service which deals with the certificate renewal (snap.nextcloud.renew-certs.service). So normally the renewal is handled automatically.
JĂśrg
Can you please describe how you did it?
Thx!

Normaly this will proceed automatically. If not you can trigger it with sudo snap refresh.
After updating to the newest version of the snap certificate renewal works for me.
I have the latest snap version running on my box. However, I also received the email from letsencrypt and the certificate expired yesterday. Re-running sudo nextcloud.enable-https produces

and does not seem to work. Do I need to get rid of the old certificate first?
Hi,
My snaps are all updated.
$ snap list
Name Version Rev Developer Notes
nextcloud 11.0.1snap1 719 nextcloud -
ubuntu-core 16.04.1 1361 canonical -
$ sudo snap refresh
All snaps up to date.
The mentioned renew-certs service seems to be running:
$ ps ax | grep certs
10703 ? Ss 0:00 /bin/sh /snap/nextcloud/719/bin/renew-certs
Yet my letsencrypt cert is about to expire tomorrow.
Same with me, although this is because I thought that these Lets Encypt Certificate Expiration reminder emails didnt need me to do anything (just my stupidity, I dont want to cloud the current issue with an explanation of exactly why 
) and my certificate expired (which I wouldnât have known how to do anyway).
Not knowing how to resurrect the certificate I tried to follow the instructions in part 4 here in the wiki again but ran into problems
sudo nextcloud.enable-https -d
worked OK:
Looks like youâre ready for HTTPS!
But
sudo nextcloud.enable-https
gave me repeated errors:

Afterwards, I tried deleting the existing trusted certificates lines (except for the 0 line one) in my config.php file and then trying again, but this just gave me the same errors
So, now when I try to access the box it says my certificates are not correct
Can someone help me, please?
Please check wether the certificate was renewed or installed. I got similar messages, but the certificate was renewed/installed. You can check it with your browser,

I have the exact same problem. Certificate is about to expire and i couldnât find a way to renew itâŚ
Actually deleting the old certificate folders (or moving them to a backup folder) before creating new ones worked for me. I think the path was something like /var/snap/nextcloud/current/certs.
I also noticed that I had to re-generate the certificates when the snap was updated.
In the worst case, running nextcloud with a self-signed certificate should work.
Thanks Oli!
That worked 
For others like me, what I did exactly was:
cd /var/snap/nextcloud/current/
mv certs certs1
reboot
nextcloud.enable-https lets-encrypt -d
and after that said that I was ready
nextcloud.enable-https lets-encrypt
rm -r certs1
I used nextcloud.enable-https -h to work out that the info in the wiki doesnât tell you to put in the lets-encrypt option.
Is this new? I think I only used nextcloud.enable-https -d before, but that doesnât work (Although I could well have just not remembered putting in lets-encrypt)
How do I know when the snap has been updated?

Hi,
I got a certificate problem on my nextcloud box. âThe certificate has expiredâ.
Effective Date: Tue May 9 12:12:00 2017 GMT
Expiration Date: Mon Aug 7 12:12:00 2017 GMT
Firefox doesnât allow me to connect to my server because of this, and other apps donât work as well. The version I have is 11.0.3. It never updated to v. 12, I donât know if itâs related.
From what I understood, and it seemed to have worked well for the last 9 months, I have nothing to do to renew my certificate.
What can I do ?
Thanks
well no, I didnât know if it was going to fix the issue or not, and I donât really understand why it would work, and what stop working in the first place.
Do you have any idea why it stopped working ? I posted more info here: No automatic renewing of Letsencrypt certificate on Nextcloud Box
