Acme.sh: moving servers - copying .acme/ directory contents ?

Created on 22 Aug 2016  路  4Comments  路  Source: acmesh-official/acme.sh

If moving servers, would these steps be ok domain with acme.sh issued letsencrypt cert ?

  1. on new server, install acme.sh so it's home would be i.e. /root/.acme.sh
  2. on old server transfer site data along with the acme.sh installcert specified path saved letsencrypt ssl certificates

you also need to copy the subdirectories in /root/.acme.sh - those contain the real information about the certificates. the installcert path only contains the certificates without their acme.sh metadata.

when we moved servers, we just installed acme.sh the regular way, then replaced the .acme.sh contents with the one from the old server. that works fine if all website paths etc are identical on the new server, if not you'll have to change the .conf files for each certificate

cheers yeach when i mean copy /root/.acme.sh i mean everything under it subdirectory wise

@centminmod Yes, Correct.

cheers :)
