Message to Moses - I need your help

[Gaybutton]

Hi Moses. I really need your help. I sent a couple PMs, but I don't know if they went through. The sent messages folder does not show them.

My board is down due to an Error 526, "Invalid SSL certificate". I hope you can fix it. I don't have any idea how to fix it myself. If you need the SSL keys, I have them.

Thank you very much in advance.

Do you know how to login to your server via SSH? Assuming you're running Nginx, login via root, and type:

sudo apt-get -y install certbot
/etc/init.d/nginx restart
certbot certonly

Select 1 for the first question, enter your domain name, and it'll generate your SL cert for free. In the /etc/nginx/conf.d/ directory, look for your http config file. Inside there you should see two lines for the directives:

ssl_certificate
ssl_certificate_key

Change the values of those two lines to point to the newly created SSL files that 'certbot' would have given you the location of. Then restart Nginx with:

/etc/init.d/nginx restart

Site will work fine after that.

It's working just fine.

I wish I did, but I don't. Moses originally set up all that for me and I don't have a clue. I'll just have to wait until Moses finds out what happened and can fix it, which I'm sure he probably can do in just a couple minutes.

GB,

I have been receiving that message yesterday and again a few minutes ago. I hope Moses can get it fixed for you soon.

Are you insane???

Asking Gaybutton to comprehend those instructions and fix the problem is like asking Helen Keller to paint a replica of the Mona Lisa.

Didn't she?

Actually I wouldn't have had to comprehend those instructions - simply follow them.

All kidding aside - you may want to check out this Utube video for fixing SSL Certificate problems. Looks pretty straight forward.

Good luck

Thank you. I don't have the passwords to get into the server. Even if I have the passwords, I have no idea where or how to find the server.

Two more reasons why I will wait for Moses. The first is Moses knows what he's doing and I don't.

The second reason is Moses knows what he's doing and I don't.
