Letsencrypt (Certbot) Generate The Wildcard SSL Certificate

Posted on | by @thinkcyber | Leave a Comment on Letsencrypt (Certbot) Generate The Wildcard SSL Certificate

Now with the help of Certbot will generate wildcard certificate for our test domain erpnext.xyz

sudo certbot certonly --manual --preferred-challenges=dns --email nome@erpnext.xyz --server https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory --agree-tos -d *.erpnext.xyz

After executing the above command, the Certbot will share a text record to add to your DNS.


Please deploy a DNS TXT record under the name
_acme-challenge.erpnext.xyz with the following value:

J50GNXkhGmKCfn-0LQJcknVGtPEAQ_U_WajcLXgqWqo

Then you will receive:

Press Enter to Continue

IMPORTANT NOTES:
 - Congratulations! Your certificate and chain have been saved at:
   /etc/letsencrypt/live/erpnext.xyz-0001/fullchain.pem
   Your key file has been saved at:
   /etc/letsencrypt/live/erpnext.xyz-0001/privkey.pem
  Your cert will expire on 2019-08-31. To obtain a new or tweaked
   version of this certificate in the future, simply run certbot
   again. To non-interactively renew *all* of your certificates, run
   "certbot renew"

Check version number

certbot --version || /path/to/certbot-auto --version

If you have already installed Certbot, you should add a parameter to apt-get install to upgrade only a specific package

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade certbot

Setting permissions for wordpress

Everyone experiencing this issue should execute these commands:

sudo usermod -aG www-data $USER

Adds the currently logged in user to the www-data group.

sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www

Changes the ownership of the /var/www directory to www-data group.

sudo chmod -R 755 /var/www

If this doesn’t fix the issue you’re having, you’ve got something else wrong and bashing DO is not going to help anyone. If you want a managed server, look for hosting elsewhere. If you need help, ask someone or hire an admin that knows how to not only ‘set things up’ but knows how to secure your server as well. You’ll be glad you did. DO is not for novices, even if they have a lot of tutorials.
