Kobo-install http/https/certificate nightmare

Hi @kobokuet,
Sorry to hear that. We are aware that it seems to have an error with Let’sEncrypt renewal.
Please note that it takes time to debug because Let’sEncrypt blocks after several failed attempts.

If you want to use your own certificates, you must use a reverse proxy/load balancer in front of kobo-docker containers. The certificates must be installed in the reverse proxy.
That’s what we use on production and we don’t have any mix of https and http requests.

The main important thing is to have X-Forwarded-Proto https header on the reverse proxy sent to kobo-docker frontend nginx container.

Please take a look at this response Installing own ssl certificate on Kobo and especially this topic on Git Hub. Let me know if it helps.
