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: meet.musashi.ninja -old meet.uhlhosting.ch
I ran this command:
root@meet:/etc/nginx# letsencrypt certificates

It produced this output:
My web server is (include version): nginx version: nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu)
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS \n \l
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
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): certbot 0.40.0
The issue is that no matter what command I tried, it told me the plugin is not installed. Yet the certificates gets renewed without issues on old server meet.uhlhosting.ch , this is a clone with replaced ip and hostname.
root@meet:/etc/nginx# letsencrypt --nginx -d meet.musashi.ninja
Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log
The requested nginx plugin does not appear to be installed
root@meet:/etc/nginx#
How does the certificate gets renewed in nginx, when it tells me the plugin is not there? And how to remediate?
