A site I built and am hosting on digital ocean (https://gradient.world/) suddenly start showing a “Your connection is not private” message in chrome with a “NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID” error. I followed the DO tutorial on setting up SSL here (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secure-nginx-with-let-s-encrypt-on-ubuntu-16-04) . When I run sudo certbot renew --dry-run I get the following logs

** DRY RUN: simulating 'certbot renew' close to cert expiry
** (The test certificates below have not been saved.)
Congratulations, all renewals succeeded. The following certs have been renewed:
/etc/letsencrypt/live/gradient.world/fullchain.pem (success)
** DRY RUN: simulating 'certbot renew' close to cert expiry
** (The test certificates above have not been saved.)
So it seems like the cert is configured to renew properly. Any chance some could help me debug this? Thanks.

I, too, am having this same issue on a certain droplet. Lets Encrypt is saying it’s good to go, but still getting browser errors. @jtittle may be able to help.
