SSL certificate renewed but not updating on website

Hi,

I have very little experience with any kind of backend/server stuff and am at a loss. I have a WordPress site hosted on Google Cloud Platform and it was set up with OpenLiteSpeed. I followed these instructions (https://docs.litespeedtech.com/cloud/images/wordpress/) to set up SSL certificates, which worked. However, I'm having trouble with the auto renew.

After editing the crontab file, the certificates appear to have renewed, but the website lock icon is still showing the old expiration date. Can someone help me understand why the new certificate has not been recognized by the browsers and how I can fix this.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

If you did not setup the Let's Encrypt Cert by the prompt script, then you may want to add a hook to restart litespeed web server manually.
Please do
Code:
service lsws restart
to fix the cert issue first. Then add "--deploy-hook "/usr/local/lsws/bin/lswsctrl restart" in the end of the certbot cronjob rule.

Best,
Eric
