Nginx cannot be restarted due to a missing certificate

[luckow]

In November 2024 I stopped an app. Since then, I have never touched it again. Today I wanted to install an app, but the process stopped with Nginx Error - Error reloading nginx: reverseproxy exited with code 1 signal null.

Expected behavior: A stopped app has no effect on the restart of Nginx.

That helped in my case:

And here is the “keyboard magic” in case someone has no idea how to use grep grep -rin sub.example.org .

Can you try cloudron-support --troubleshoot ? It has some logic to remove obsolete certs .

Thank you. I will try cloudron-support --troubleshoot next time.
