Questions

Is Let's Encrypt down right now?

According to reports on this page, Let's Encrypt looks fine for most people. Isolated failures still happen — report yours if you are stuck.

When was the last mass outage?

We do not have a recorded mass outage for Let's Encrypt yet.

Why did my certificate renewal fail?

Renewals fail for several reasons. Common ones are DNS records that have not propagated, a firewall blocking the validation request, or rate limits if you requested many certificates in a short period. Check your domain's DNS and your server configuration, then try again.

How do I know if the problem is on my side?

Check this status page first. If Let's Encrypt reports normal operation, review your own setup: DNS records, port 80 and 443 reachability, and your ACME client's logs. If the API is degraded, waiting and retrying later is usually enough.
