Can anyone help me on that??

Thanks for the attention.

Hello @francescouk

By seeing the "error" log level which you have provided the certificate has been expired on 2nd of April.

 certificate has expired or is not yet valid: current time 2022-05-18T20:28:53-03:00

if you would like to still achieve this, we can do two things

  1. Try renewing the new certificate - (Recommended way)
    (or)
  2. Turning off the ssl verification and changing protocol from https to http (Not Recommended way at all)

Hope this helps :slight_smile:

Keep Posted!!! Thanks !!!

Hi there,

I´m using elastic self signed certificate. Strange, just done 2 months ago. Anyway, which would be the best approach to renew using Elasticsearch-certutil?

@francescouk
Yes, if you are using self managed Elastic cluster. This document would help

cert

Hope , your issue has been address :slight_smile:

Keep posted!!! Thanks !!!
