My SSL certificate expired

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. crt.sh | example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is: kaydemghana.com

I ran this command:

It produced this output:

My web server is (include version):

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: Google Cloud

I need help to renew the SSL certificate or an advice on what to do after checking out the error on the website. Thanks

Did you use a wordpress plugin for Let's Encrypt or did you use Certbot (or something else)?

If you don't know I'd recommend hiring a local web consultancy to fix it for you.

Welcome to the Let's Encrypt Community, Jil :slightly_smiling_face:

Your certificate is expired. As @webprofusion asked, do you know how you got the certificate previously?

Complete certificate history for kaydemghana.com:

Thanks friend, I had a local Web service work on it. He is advising I switch to another hosting provider.

Please do you agree to this?

From the history, that's a cloudflare basic certificate?
Any help with that. Want to see if I can renew and possibly switch to a new hosting provider next year

It appears to me that your Let's Encrypt certificate was autorenewing successfully for many months. A Cloudflare wildcard certificate appears to be the most recent certificate issued though. It appears that kaydemghana.com is using Cloudflare for its DNS yet is not using the Cloudflare content delivery network (CDN). I see no reason why you can't either renew your Let's Encrypt certificate or install the existing Cloudflare wildcard certificate. Do you have SSH access to the webserver?

That's a Bitnami stack.
