I'm getting certificate expiry notifications from cPanel after migrating to a new server. I've checked the AutoSSL logs on the new server, and I have valid SSL certificates for those sites.
I thought this could be due to requests from the previous server (still live, but no longer managing those domains). Looking more closely, it appears the messages may simply be referring to the last certificate generated by the old server. For example, I get this message in a cPanel email:
----
domain.org: The SSL certificate expires on Mar 28, 2020 at 12:00:00 AM UTC. At the time of this notice, the certificate will expire in “3 days, 19 hours, and 21 seconds”.
The SSL certificate for “domain.org” has not been renewed. You must take action to secure this site.
----
Yet the AutoSSL on the new server shows that
----
6:59:03 AM Analyzing “domainuser”’s domains …
6:59:03 AM Analyzing “domain.org” …
6:59:03 AM SUCCESS TLS Status: OK
Certificate expiry: 5/29/20, 12:00 AM UTC (65.54 days from now)
6:59:03 AM SUCCESS This user’s SSL coverage is already optimal.
----
Are the non-renewal e-mails just an artifact of the certificate previously acquired on the old server? Or is there some action I need to take?
Thanks for any advice anyone can provide.
