Like a lot of others, I'm having issues renewing my certificate. I'm using the certbot-auto renew command. It's actually put into a cronjob and I guess never worked. My cert just expired so I only realised now.
It's just hosted on my own ubuntu server at home, with nothing much on it. I can kind of hit the root but if I refresh it fails (I assume due to expired cert).
If I check the log, this looks kind of important:

But I'm not really sure why it can't connect.
My domain is: endor.noonecares.dk
I ran this command: sudo /opt/certbot/certbot-auto renew
It produced this output:
