      Is it up to date?

          Here is the only entry in the NGINX error log for the last time NGINX stopped.

          2021/01/08 22:34:03 [error] 847#847: *195 access forbidden by rule, client: 195.154.63.222, server: plextrack.jpslconsulting.ca, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", host: "plextrack.jpslconsulting.ca"
          

          The Let's Encrypt log shows no activity immediately before the outage.

          Syslog also shows no errors. It has entries from 3AM to 3:155AM and 9:59PM to 10:02PM on the day of the last incident however the outage occurred between 7:06PM and 10:00PM so the only related entries in this log are at the time the outage was discovered and Ubuntu restarted.

            I also ran the NGINX test and all looks good.

                @black3dynamite I'm not seeing any evidence of this failing in the letsencrypt.log file syslog or nginx logs (both access and error). Would those logs be elsewhere? Obviously I don't want to have to manually renew certs.

                  @NashBrydges letsencrypt.log is the only one I'm aware of. Actually are using systemd to renew your certs or cronjob?

                      If they weren't it wouldn't even start up.

                          @scottalanmiller Well at this point I'm looking at any log that has "error" in the name. Lol

                            This should show you what there is for Nginx itself....

                            grep nginx /var/log/messages

                                  Which is useful for in a case I've seen where the service was started by other means, and showed all addresses were already in use.

                                    I thought the modern distros these days were journalctl -f or journalctl|grep blah|less

                                        @scottalanmiller Yeah, those log messages are in the syslog file in Ubuntu. The only log entries in syslog are related to when I rebooted the server. GREP output is too large for those related nginx entries in the log for me to post here but just reviewed every line and no errors that I could find.

                                          Not necessarily looking for errors, just information as to what might have happened.
