Mine is more like:
43 0,12 * * * /usr/bin/certbot renew --nginx
and it works flawlessly.
You could try it with Apache plugin, like:
43 0,12 * * * /usr/bin/certbot renew --apache
or
43 0,12 * * * root /usr/bin/certbot renew --apache
Try this now - let's see if it throws any errors:
/usr/bin/certbot renew --apache
I'm on Ubuntu
This may be related: Certbot via cron writes files unreadable by apache (SELinux/CentOS 7)
There doesn't seem to be a lot of support for SELinux...
