SSL certificate about to expire on biojs1.stemformatics.org

I have received this email today:

Hello,

Your certificate (or certificates) for the names listed below will expire in
1 days (on 16 May 18 23:28 +0000). Please make sure to renew
your certificate before then, or visitors to your website will encounter errors.

Unfortunately, we can't provide support by email.

Does anyone know how we got the certificate in the first place? And if this could be a problem? The workman is running on biojs3 at the moment anyway.

Let's encrypt works on a service called certbot. Afaik, running

$ sudo certbot renew 

will renew all the ssl certificates on the server system.

A while ago, I saw a blog post that said that Lets Encrypt had put a halt on providing ssl certificates. You would might like to have a look on that.

Thanks @Megh-Thakkar! I was going through the console history an couldn't find certbot anywhere which is why I asked here.

I just ran it now and it's throwing an error:

dennis@biojs1:~$ sudo certbot renew
Traceback (most recent call last):

    dir = gettempdir()

    tempdir = _get_default_tempdir()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/tempfile.py", line 217, in _get_default_tempdir
    ("No usable temporary directory found in %s" % dirlist))
IOError: [Errno 2] No usable temporary directory found in ['/tmp', '/var/tmp', '/usr/tmp', '/home/dennis']

Not even sure we need the certificate at this point. 🤔

@DennisSchwartz can you make sure you have the required root permissions? Check out the first answer here

Thanks again! It was actually the disk space that was missing :)

Congratulations, all renewals succeeded. The following certs have been renewed:
  /etc/letsencrypt/live/biojs1.stemformatics.org/fullchain.pem (success)
