Invalid URL - unable to connect to Server

Support

Hi, I see an ‘Invalid URL’ alert in Server Settings of the COVID19 App connected to this server “https://staging.covid.oppia-mobile.org/” and in Extension Essentials App connected to this server “https://staging.training.et.oppia-mobile.org/”. Any reason why?

Hi @iwilliams
It looks like the server SSL certificates for these sites aren’t valid anymore (that’s the warning you get when trying to access the dashboard urls in browser), so 2 possibilities…

  1. the script that does the auto certficate renewal for certbot is not running correctly; or
  2. something to do with the DNS updates that Eseosa and I are doing at the moment
    I suspect it’s more likely to be item 2, so will update the jira ticket that we have for that
    Cheers,
    Alex

HI Alex, we are having the same problem in the last hour or so. We just renewed our SSL certificate two days ago and it was working well after that. Anything happening on your side? Best, Steve

Hi Steve,
There’s nothing on our side that we’ve updated recently, but if it’s the ssl certificate on your server, then it’s wouldn’t be affected by anything on the Digital Campus servers anyway.
Are you using LetsEncrypt/Certbot for the certificates, as if so, these ought to renew automatically, but you can also manually run their command for renewing the certificates again, to see if that fixes things,
Cheers,
Alex
