You can temporarily change this line: [image] icykoala: # renew_before_expiry = 30 days to: renew_before_expiry = 87 days And it should attempt to renew tomorrow. [then put it back to 30 days or just rem it out]

I found this forum where others are having the same issue. It doesn't seem that anyone has found a working solution yet either.
