Yeah, I got that expired certificate of death warning as well - but only briefly.

Posting this from Firefox as chrome won't let me post anything on any device. Many could be having this problem.

Mike.
Edit, had to add this site to exceptions in Firefox.

Yeah, Firefox let's you add or remove it as an exception pretty easily. Looks like the certificate expired a few hours ago: Monday, September 23, 2019, 9:44:25 PM GMT

I’m getting a certificate error too with Win 10 & Edge.

They let me come here anyway against their advice.

Yep, Firefox complained about it, and I over-rode it.

Didn't we have the same problem a year ago?, it's like they forget to renew the certificate until it's actually expired and people complain.

Hi All... The certificate should be working properly now. The script to auto renew this failed yesterday. Well not failed but was waiting for MANUAL input of a Y to overwrite :/ Anyhow... We're moving over to a different provider soon.

Probably related, redirection to HTTPS site does not work, and on the HTTP site I cannot login, due to the "cookie consent" not being recognized or asked again, I get this error message when trying to log in.
"Oops! We ran into some problems.

earlier today (3 hours ago) was getting a 502 (bad gateway) error. tried again now, and everything working again (obviously since i'm adding this post)... that usually indicates a problem with the server configuration. if you are using a provider, the ball is in their court.

that makes it a "semiautomatic" script.... in most scripting languages there are ways around that... but then again if it's a certificate, you do want to make sure it's correct before overwriting the old one.
