Custom Wildcard Certifiate not applied to email

[girish]

@Peter-Newman I think i found what the issue is. I guess you were using normal Let's Encrypt certs (i.e not wildcard Let's Encrypt) before switching to your custom Wildcard, correct?

[Peter Newman]

@girish Yes, that was the case.

@Peter-Newman I opened https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/box/-/issues/724 . Hopefully, we can get this fixed in the coming release.

Great, I'm looking forward to it.
So you know, the old certificate got put back into place and I had to re-apply the manual change.
Do you know what circumstances cause the cert to be reevaluated? For example, adding applications? Or is it just something that will happen on a regular schedule?

I will try to make a fix in the coming day or two and maybe you can apply the patch already before we release 5.5. I will keep this post updated.

@Peter-Newman This is fixed in 5.5. Can you please update your Cloudron and let me know?

[Peter Newman]

@girish I'm still getting the same behaviour, and having to reapply the manual change whenever a app updates.

[girish]

@Peter-Newman Just to double check, you chose the custom certificate provider in Domains view correct? Are you able to drop me a mail in support@cloudron.io, so I can look into this further?

[Peter Newman]

@girish Actually, I just double-checked and the update didn't install. I'd seen it was in the process of installing, then had finished, so had assumed I was on 5.5, but I'm still using 5.4 . I've retriggered the update process and will test again if it finishes.

Edit: Hmm, it ran and again failed, but I refreshed the page before clicking to get the logs, and the nightly scheduled update had started! The displayed message was something like "failed with signal null".

Edit: Ah, I was able to grab the log (and the log of cloudton-updater) and found the problem. A little while ago, I'd started installing a tool used by my hosting provider, without realizing it was going to trigger an apt update etc, which Cloudron specifically warns against. I broke out of it, but it seems I left dpkg with unconfigured packages. I've fixed that now, and am trying the update again.

@Peter-Newman Did you manage to update?

[Peter Newman]

@girish Yes I did, and the problem with the certificates is now fixed. Thank you!
