Renew SSL Certificate on InfinityFree

Username (e.g. epiz_XXX) or Website URL

Error Message

Free SSL certificate will expire for runrabbitrun.uk will expire in 30 days

Other Information

Hey folks,

So I received the email from infintyfree to renew the SSL certificate as it states it expires in 30 days. I thought I had set up ssl in cloudflare. I have logged in to cloudflare and checked unter the ssl certificates and there is one there for my url which expires on 21/08/2022. So I’m a bit confused as to which site is actually doing my ssl certificate. Is it Infinityfree or Cloudflare? Again, totally new to this kind of stuff as the one I had many years ago, somewhere else, auto-renewed so I didn’t have to change anything. If it is from Inifinityfree, how do I renew? I don’t see a straight forward renew certificate button or any clear cut instructions for this. And if it’s the one from cloudflare (I have attached a screenshot to show it’s active and linked to site) do I just ignore that email from Infinityfree?

Confusing.

Many thanks for any help folks.

Could be both. What mode is CloudFlare operating?? Full mode or flexible?

Hi KangJL,

Thank you for the quick reply. Cloudflare mode is set to flexible.
Thank you for the link, I shall take a look at that now.

Have clicked link, typed in domain, selected the Let’s Encrypt which throws back " Validation error

You already have an SSL domain for this domain with this provider". I know there is already one there but it has asked me to renew so I thought I would be able to generate the new one or do I have to wait for those 30 days to finish before I renew?

This could be a bit of a pain. Could I not just use the one from Cloudflare? If so, are there any straight forward step by step instructions to do so?

Many thanks again.
