Error from MongoDB logs:

2022-07-30T05:18:05.262 0000 I CONTROL [main] ***** SERVER RESTARTED ***** 2022-07-30T05:18:05.344 0000 F NETWORK [main] The provided SSL certificate is expired or not yet valid. 2022-07-30T05:18:05.344 0000 F - [main] Fatal Assertion 28652 at src/mongo/util/net/ssl_manager_openssl.cpp 1182 2022-07-30T05:18:05.344 0000 F - [main] \n\n***aborting after fassert() failure\n\n

However, according to certbot, the SSL certificate we are using is not expired. It is still valid and does not need to be renewed at the moment.

All MongoD service just stopped working and cannot access the admin website.

The service won't restart as well on the server which is running:

Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS MongoDB v4.2.21

CodePudding user response：

You have at least four possibilities:

1. You are using a different certificate than the one certbot is testing.
2. The certificate has not expired but the date on your system is wrong.
3. The certificate has expired or one in the certificate chain has expired.
4. The certificate was issued for a future date.

Use openssl to display the servers' certificate details:

echo -n | openssl s_client -connect hostname:27017 | openssl x509 -text
