I have a website hosted on an EC2 instance with Ubuntu and nginx installed. My domain is managed through GoDaddy which is where I also issue the SSL certificate for the domain. Recently I got service disruption as the SSL certificate expired. The problem is that I have to watch the certificate expire and pair it with my nginx configuration, which causes service disruption. Is there any way for me to get this process done before it expires or completely automated?

Thanks.

    Does this answer your question? [Let's Encrypt certificate renewed, but the site delivers the old one](https://serverfault.com/questions/815672/lets-encrypt-certificate-renewed-but-the-site-delivers-the-old-one) – Gerald Schneider Nov 19 '20 at 10:32

    Certbot recommends to run the cronjob to renew the certificate daily. It will only renew it when needed. – Gerald Schneider Nov 19 '20 at 10:33
  • Using certbot seems like a solutioni. Thanks for pointing that out. I will give it a shot. – Microtribute Nov 19 '20 at 11:57

    Oh, somehow I thought I read in your question that you were using Let's Encrypt. Sorry, my fault, if you don't then this is of course not really a solution. – Gerald Schneider Nov 19 '20 at 12:12
