Discussion on: Let's Encrypt: Renew Wildcard Certificate With Certbot

@nabbisen forgot to update this, so it turns out it didn't actually renew the root cert, only renew the wildcard since that's the one I ran the command for. This means I had to run twice, one for each wildcard and root domains. But you're saying you only ran the same one? But how so if the DNS record is the same with different values? Maybe you update your post to explain that process, I for one don't know how to do it.

Hello. I'm sorry for my late reply.
As I wrote in my post:

certbot ... -d "*.<your-domain>" -d <your-domain> ...
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

I used two -d options at the same time. For example, it was certbot ... -d "*.some.domain" -d some.domain ... .
Does it mean to "run twice, one for each wildcard and root domains" as you wrote🙂?
