This is my husband’s account. My husband died three weeks ago from a short, brutal battle with cancer. I just checked his email and see that the Let’s Encrypt certifications for my websites are set to expire in the next two weeks. I have no idea what to do. Help?
Where do you host your website? Is it with a shared hosting provider (aka login to a panel and have file manager etc…) Or need to execute command line?
I’m almost positive he did everything himself through command line on AWS. I can try to log in there to see. I’m so sorry I don’t have more information.
You might find an email from AWS that explains how to login to the system using SSH.
Otherwise, you might be able to get that info directly from the AWS site - once you are logged in.
In any case, it should be something like using SSH and some “key” authentication string.
The cert will expire in ten days, so you have some time to get that login info.
Once you have it we can help figure out how to renew the cert and maybe even setup auto-renewals.
From the AWS Console, select EC2, then Instances, and see if your server is listed there. If so, select it and hit the Connect button; that should give you the instructions to connect.
If it’s not there, it might be in Lightsail. If so, see these instructions for connecting to it:
Once you get connected, check if you see anything mentioning Bitnami, as that would be important for us to know if so. Then try typing the commands stevenzhu suggested, and let us know what happens.
