WordPress website migration
-
Everything is migrated over to new server. I confirmed that domain is resolving to the new server. I was not able to grab a new cert, but the old one appears to be working fine. Maybe it's because I was requesting a cert for the same domain?
-
Well wtf copying the config didn't allow me to grab a let's encrypt cert. However it did fix my url rewrites, but that was expected.
Still same virtual host error.
-
Doesn't full mean it's using my cert? This seems odd.
-
I see now that it doesn't verify certificate unless you select strict. OK back to figuring out the LE issue
Unable to find a virtual host listening on port 80 which is currently needed for Certbot to prove to the CA that you control your domain. Please add a virtual host for port 80.

@IRJ Full (strict) requires a valid certificate.

Why use a LE cert if oyu have CloudFlare in front? Use the cloudflare cert for the machine.

I thought I had a guide around here on how to use LetsEncrypt with Cloudflare and an Nginx proxy. If not, I could write one quick enough when I get home, I have it scripted now. I'd imagine you could use the same setup for your Wordpres site.

But what would be the point? You can have a 100% solid reliable encryption without that headache simply by using the machine CERT from cloud flair

@IRJ This would be a heck of a guide if you ever get the time to do it
