Noob question - location of certbot-auto on LAMP server

[taptap]

My domain is: Gapify.co.uk

I ran this command: ./certbot-auto renew

It produced this output: ./certbot-auto no such file or directory

My web server is (include version): Linux Apache

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu 16.04.4

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: Vultr

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

Hello - sorry for the noob question. I have found similar questions but none that I could use to answer my specific query.

It is time for me to renew my let’s encrypt certificate. I am trying to do it manually via the command line using certbot-auto renew, but the server response says ‘no such file or directory’. My assumption (which may well be wrong) is that I just need to first navigate to the actual directory where certbot-auto lives, but I don’t know where this is? Is there a standard folder that this would be installed to? Any other suggestions on how I can renew the certificate?

If it helps, I’m almost certain I followed this guide to install it in the first place - https://www.vultr.com/docs/setup-letsencrypt-on-linux

Any help gratefully received.

If you’ve lost track of where you put it, it’s okay. certbot-auto can safely be re-downloaded, it is really more of a launcher than an actual copy of Certbot.

Once you download it again and run it, it will find your existing installation and settings and all will be well.

Great - thanks for your help. I was concerned about re-running any installers and having issues with installing certificates twice or causing conflicts. I have successfully renewed the certificate now. I followed this guide https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secure-apache-with-let-s-encrypt-on-ubuntu-16-04 skipping section two and jumping straight to the ‘certbot renew’ command and all worked well.
