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: coachmaster.co.uk and others
I ran this command:
It produced this output:
My web server is (include version): nginx 1.20.0
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu 20.04
My hosting provider, if applicable, is: bitfolk
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know): yes
I'm using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): no
The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version
or certbot-auto --version
if you're using Certbot): 0.31.0 on old machine.
I am trying to test a rebuild of my server, while the old machine is still running.
I cannot auto-upgrade ubuntu, because the accumulated changes from 2010 (08?) are too many and the 18.04 to 20.04 upgrade breaks badly. It has come to the point where I have to rebuild the server in ubuntu 20.04. I can't test the webserver without the certificates, and I can't install via certbot because the new server is not on-line. I have discovered that the backup I have taken with rsnapshot does not include the symlinks!
So what symlinks must I re-create so that nginx is happy again.
Having set them up, with the latest restored files from the backup, should it work off-line, or will I have recertification woes?
I also note that I have been collecting csr/*.pem files on a daily basis, and keys/*.pem files even more frequently. What can I clear out to tidy up and regain some space?
Many thanks
Ian
