Topic: Oops.. data.blitzortung.org SSL cert expired

[saratogaWX]

Looks like auto-renew for the LetsEncrypt cert for data.blitzortung.org expired Tue, 12 Jul 2022 04:50:11 GMT so currently, HTTPS does not work.  HTTP does still work, so temporarily change your scripts using the site to http: from https:

Are the lines in BOmapgen-inc.php?

I see these:

Code: [Select]

// strikes and stations path
//
# old $strikes_dir= 'http://' . $username . ':' . $password . '@'.$mainURL.'/Data_' . $region . '/Protected/Strikes/';
# new https://loginname:password@data.blitzortung.org/Data/Protected/Strikes_1/2013/08/08/10/30.json.gz
$strikes_dir= 'https://' . $username . ':' . $password . '@'.$mainURL.'/Data/Protected/Strikes_' . $region . '/';

# old $stations_file= 'http://' . $username . ':' . $password . '@'.$mainURL.'/Data_/' . $region . '/Protected/stations.json.gz';
# new https://loginname:password@data.blitzortung.org/Data/Protected/stations.txt.gz
$stations_file= 'https://' . $username . ':' . $password . '@'.$mainURL.'/Data/Protected/stations.json.gz';

# V1.07 - add query with last_strikes.php
$strikes_query = 'https://' . $username . ':' . $password . '@'.$mainURL.'/Data/Protected/last_strikes.php?number=999999';
Are the $strikes_dir, $stations_file, and $strikes_query lines what need to be changed?

Yep.. those are the ones.

Yep.. those are the ones.

Thanks, Ken. That seems to have fixed it.

Will we need to change back to 'https://' at some time in the future, if the cert is renewed?

Dear all,

sorry for that, we switched servers and I thought the renewal notification was for the old server. Of course that shouldn't happen.

Both ways can be used http:// and https://

Yes, and you can do that now

OK, just did. Earlier I renamed the one with https:// to "old" so I was able to just delete the file and rename it back to normal.
