renew expired let’s encrypt certificate with certbot

By inUncategorized Tag , , ,

Firstly my certificates were created for mysubdomain.witr.net with certbot like so:

sudo apt-get install certbot -t stretch-backports
sudo certbot certonly --webroot -w /path/to/http/server/web/dir1

All is fine.

Some days after, I changed the directory of http server web path (ansible refactoring)

When certificate is near to expire, and I’m going to renew its validity, always with certbot, I’m having following error:

could not find path /path/to/http/server/web/dir1

Fixed by changing certbot configuration in /etc/letsencrypt/renewal/mysubdomain.witr.net.conf

# edit following line option to set the good path: 
mysubdomain.witr.net = /new/path
admin

To create code blocks or other preformatted text, indent by four spaces:

    This will be displayed in a monospaced font. The first four 
    spaces will be stripped off, but all other whitespace
    will be preserved.
    
    Markdown is turned off in code blocks:

To create not a block, but an inline code span, use backticks: 

Here is some inline `code`.
