Another free CA as an alternative to Let's Encrypt
> I'm using the acme.sh client but the process will be similar no matter which client you choose to use.
Always nice to see some variety in clients along side the official Let's Encrypt one.
While we do use the official Python-based client at works at times, whenever I install it via apt, and it pulls in a whole bunch of dependencies, it's a bit disconcerting to me.
I'm a bit partial to dehydrated, which is a shell script (works under Bash and Zsh): I find it a lot easier to understand. It's handy to put on Linux/POSIX-based appliances like F5s, where the only prerequisites are Bash, cURL, and OpenSSL (and standard Unix tools like sed, grep, etc):

Running one’s own root Certificate Authority in 2023
I've had a lot of success with https://github.com/dehydrated-io/dehydrated . It exposes the different parts of the process (deploy challenge to DNS, deploy cert to filesystem, etc) as hooks, so it's pretty easy to integrate with anything and however you want, if you don't mind writing a bit of bash. There's a few scripts out there that use Cloudflare that you can use as well.

How do you renew SSL certificates?
Depend on host's capability... - lego - dehydrated - caddy - in case it already works as a web server, it will automatically issue and renew certs

Take a look at this great project : https://github.com/dehydrated-io/dehydrated/wiki : many dns providers are documented.

Write Posix Shell
> Oh, and that 500-line shell script probably ends up being a 5000-line Python monster anyway.
The dehydrated ACME client is 2400 lines of bash/zsh:
* https://github.com/dehydrated-io/dehydrated
And its external dependencies are OpenSSL and cURL. The acme.sh shell ACME client is 8000 lines of shell:
* https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh
The official Let's Encrypt client is written in Python, and the core 'executable' is much longer, and in addition it pulls in a boatload of dependencies:

ZeroSSL: XSS to session hijacking, stealing a private key (and password hash)

Looking for help with VIRTUAL_HOST set up and 502 Bad Gateway (possible bad SSL?)
I prefer dehydrated as an ACME client because it's written in bash and the only dependencies are sed, awk, grep, and openssl. This will also leave you free to customize your nginx config as necessary without having to try to cram your needs into a generator that doesn't account for what you're trying to do. It seems odd to me that the generator would create the intermediary file (as per your quoted output above), but then not put that in the nginx config.

Knowing when to tell somone to call it quits...
This project has helped us immensely with cert renewals - https://github.com/dehydrated-io/dehydrated
- Does it really suck this much to set up SSL?
- Canonical releases Ubuntu 22.10 Kinetic Kudu
What are some alternatives?
letsencrypt - Certbot is EFF's tool to obtain certs from Let's Encrypt and (optionally) auto-enable HTTPS on your server. It can also act as a client for any other CA that uses the ACME protocol.
acme.sh - A pure Unix shell script implementing ACME client protocol
acme-dns - Limited DNS server with RESTful HTTP API to handle ACME DNS challenges easily and securely.
lego - Let's Encrypt/ACME client and library written in Go
acme-tiny - A tiny script to issue and renew TLS certs from Let's Encrypt
synology-tls - Automatically Update Let's Encrypt Wildcard Certificates for Synology NAS
f5-azure-arm-templates - Azure Resource Manager Templates for quickly deploying BIG-IP services in Azure
portainer-traefik-letsencrypt - This repository will help you install Portainer with Traefik and Let's Encrypt with much ease!
