Hi Guys & Girls

I have received the following error via email.

cpanel

The system cannot install the fetched certificate (EXPIRES_SOON).

The system failed to acquire a signed certificate from the cPanel Store because of the following error: (XID da3fv7) The cPanel Store returned an error (X::TemporarilyUnavailable) in response to the request “POST ssl/certificate/whm-license/90-day”: We were unable to process your request. Please try again later.

I have WHM and cPanel access and have never been able to work out how the SSL works on WHM & cPanel. I have a SSL certificate on the website that expires next year but the SSL certificate for the WHM & cPanel expires next month.

Hey there! This is a normal delay lately as Sectigo, the SSL provider, has been limiting connections to their network. The check will likely run again in the future and issue the SSL, but you can always try and run it manually with this command:

/usr/local/cpanel/bin/checkallsslcerts

Okay, thank you for your reply. The email errors seem to have stopped.

So with a WHM & cPanel, the SSL certificate I'm right in saying is free is it and it will auto-renew itself?

That's correct - if you're using cPanel's AutoSSL tools in WHM, the certificates are free and will automatically renew.
