Certificates expired
This morning, when accessing the webmail site, I got a message before login that there was an issue with the certificate. Chrome at least showed me what: the certificate was expired”. Which is well possible since Mark Daniel had installed certificates half June, which is now 3 months ago.
But the system should have taken care of that, since the tool he has created is installed and configured conform the documents supplied. So I looked at the log files and found two things:

  • It hasn’t been running before last reboot (Duh. No need since that certificate was fine)
  • Now it runs, it encounters an error on the main site and stops.
  • I’ve done a few things to find out what caused the problem, didn’t succeed. It wasn’t possible to create a mail using the web-application due to the certificate problems. Finally, I created new certificates as it were initialization, changed the configuration file referring the new certificates (which are now site-specific) and that solved the problem for the secures sites. However, checking the main site still gives a problem, so be sorted out.
