Hi @Areku
Just log in to your server and run this command (and then restart your web server):
sudo certbot renew
But you might want to setup auto-renewal, so you don’t have to think about it:
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secure-nginx-with-let-s-encrypt-on-ubuntu-16-04#step-6-set-up-auto-renewal
In this tutorial, we will show you how to use Let's Encrypt to obtain a free SSL certificate and use it with Nginx on Ubuntu 16.04. We will also show you how to automatically renew your SSL certificate. If you're running a different web server, simply follow your web server's documentation to learn how to use the certificate with your setup.
Hello,
I used this as a guide to setup my self-signed cert for a subdomain. Everything worked and seemed to be fine but my cert expired and the auto-renewal did not happen, I did run sudo certbot renew --dry-run and got no errors.
Why did the auto renew not take place after 30 days?

I had the same problem. Certbot has been configured to autorenew and yet the certificate expired a few days back. Even if I try to renew it manually, it says that the certs are not due for renewal.
Thanks!!
I did sudo certbot renew and it gave command not found.
I have two domais in my droplet… radha.org.br certificate is ok and arun.com.br certificate not ok

Okay, then you never installed that version, but you’re just using the version that comes with Ubuntu 16.04. Try this instead then:
sudo letsencrypt renewIf the certificate is already expired on
arun.com.brthen you cannot renew it, but you have to create it again.
Then just follow this tutorial from the beginning:

The certificate is expired. You have to generate a new certificate. Follow this tutorial from the beginning to end, so you also get the auto-renew feature implemented:

It’s free certificates, so it really does not matter that much. Just create new certificates.
You should follow the guide and create certificates for every domain you have.
