Browser shows letsencrypt certificate expired when it isnt

Can someone please render me some assistance

I have an issue where when accessing the domain sg.simpple.app results in an error indicating that the cert date is invalid

enter image description here

However when running certbot certificates it shows that the certificate is already up to date and has ample time till expiry

enter image description here

I have also restarted the server through

  1. systemctl restart nginx
  2. systemctl restart php-fpm

My suspicion is that it is using the wrong certificate, can someone please guide me in solving this issue?

Solution

  • Issue was with the filepath in nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf.

    As the previous letsencrypt certificate had different domains to the new letsencryp certificate generated it didnt replace the original certificate.

    had to manually change the filepath in nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf.
