The certificate for <host> will expire in <x> days

[neuronetv]

I'm running centos 6 and I got this message about two weeks ago and since then I've done the instructions on this page twice:

but still the email keeps coming every day and I've only got 13 days left to solve this. Is there any way of verifying that all will be ok when this message expires?

Check /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf and make sure that the files it points to are the ones you are updating.

You did restart the service after installing the new files?

[neuronetv]

I did /etc/init.d/httpd restart if that's what you mean (?)

[TrevorH]

Yes. Or more correctly service httpd restart but it amounts to the same thing (more or less). How about the file locations?

[neuronetv]

I looked in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl.conf and I'm confused and don't know where to start there's so much stuff in there. Is there a particular entry i should be looking for?

In the default file you need to look at the lines that contain SSLCertificateFile, SSLCertificateKeyFile and possibly SSLCertificateChainFile. Those tell the server where to find its certificate files and if your new ones are not being pointed to then that explains why they are not in use.
