I’ve follow this DigitalOcean article on installing Let’s encrypt. All was working well till i’ve followed the guide in the part to setup cron job for automatic renew certificate.
What happened? What can i do to solve this? Website is not accessible anymore.

Sorry, i’ve missed your reply. I’ve in the meantime restarted everything since I wanna to use nginx. Although i got the same issue. But this time i was able to solve it. I notice that in the tutorial mentions that we can ad ip or domain to the nginx default file, although providing ip, returns error with too many redirects. but using domain name, it works fine.

sudo crontab -e, add one line and exited?Have you allowed port 443 thru your firewall?
Modifying your crontab shouldn’t do anything to Apache.
Can you post your crontab - run this:
And post your Apache error log - run this:
