I’m having trouble renewing the SSL certificate for my project: lustrous-dieffenbachia-00a9bf.netlify.app
The current Let’s Encrypt certificate is expired and still includes an old domain that I no longer control. This is causing renewal failures and rate limits.
Details:
Site name: lustrous-dieffenbachia-00a9bf
Old domains on certificate: apps.videokings.ca, *.djing.ca
Active domains I want to keep: apps.djing.ca, apps.celebrations.ai, celebrations.ai, apps.photokings.ca
I already removed videokings.ca from my domain list and DNS, but the certificate still references it. There’s no option in the new Cloud UI to delete or reset the certificate manually.
Could someone from the team please remove or reset the existing Let’s Encrypt certificate so I can re-provision a new one with only my active domains?
Your SSL certificate issue requires intervention from the Netlify Support team – this cannot be fixed through the UI or by community members.
What’s happening is, Your existing Let’s Encrypt certificate still references old domains you no longer control (apps.videokings.ca, *.djing.ca). When Let’s Encrypt tries to renew, it needs to verify ALL domains on the certificate, causing the renewal to fail and triggering rate limits.
Issue: SSL certificate renewal failure due to removed domain
Domains to keep: List your active domains
Mention you’re hitting rate limits
Note that:
Don’t keep trying to renew – this makes rate limiting worse
Netlify Support needs to manually revoke the old certificate and provision a fresh one
Verify your active domains have correct DNS records pointing to Netlify
When removing domains, the certificate should auto-renew within 24-48 hours with the updated domain list. If it doesn’t, contact support proactively before the certificate expires.
The support team handles these certificate resets regularly and should resolve this quickly once they see your ticket.
