Free SSL Certificate with Let's Encrypt & Installation with CertBot on Apache Webserver

This video teaches you about Let's Encrypt and shows you how to use Certbot with Apache on Ubuntu 14.04.

We also run cron to auto renew certificate.

soo As if we generate that Autorenewal process successfully .. are we getting this " SSL certificate for Life long ?? as it is keep on renewing itself-( automatically)

[charlesderek]

How would you set up auto renew when using containers such as Docker?

[eternalodball]

bro how to get ssl certificate on more than 1 domain, where to put the domain in certbot config file ??

[jamiebeach]

Does Certbot have to be installed on every server?


If using letsencrypt/Boulder, do you install certbot on the boulder server?


Lastly, do you know if you install certbot on your dns, if you are doing dns validation for internal sites?

Thanks for the tutorial! One problem I had was my site wouldn't load after adding the certificate. I had to enable port forwarding for port 443 in my router settings.

Thank you thank you so much, I couldnt find this info in the official website of certbot and the new steps doesnt work for me with 14.04 version

[MrRWF]

these are old steps. now the Certbot has everything in repository and these are the steps:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot
sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install certbot python-certbot-apache



sudo certbot --apache

and to automate the renewal add this in cron for root

certbot renew --dry-run

[bladesharp]

Does the domain name is to be a public ?

[dchubad]

would be great is I could get Putty to actually connect to my server, doesnt work for me

[techmundane]

Noob here. Does this mean I don’t have to pay for this?

[briansmith]
