Don't play with certificates on Friday.

Ah the classic "recurring event"...

And then something was more important.

Then something else was more important.

Then some dev nuked production.

Then another dev needed a helping hand for database export.

Then the stakeholders wanted a financial cost analysis cause the invoices with 6 digits and more per month had a 3 digit increase.

And then someone suddenly was pissed cause the certificates ran out...

Oh yeah. There was a recurring event....

..., play games instead. it's Friday after all ;}

Why do people insist in turning a non-problem into a problem.

FFS, set up certbot *and* run sudo certbot renew --force-renewal to test it all works correctly, and move on with your life.

@CoreFusionX I use certibooot.

I configured in the server 2 years ago.

Today I have added another subdomain and used this certificate for the main virtualhost.

I did not remind the previous configuration.

I just use a certbot docker container on single vm setups, and on anything more complicated I just stick the cert on the load balancer where the cloud provider can handle it
