it might be an option to use mintty or cygwin to run the bash scripts. Haven't tried.

If you don't want official solutions only, you can use letsencrypt-win-simple.

On March 12, I installed Let’s Encrypt pem files to Apache2.4.18 on Windows. Now I uses Let’s Encrypt certs on my web server, Windows7 HE SP1 (x86).

See How to install a Let’s Encrypt Certificate supports SAN to Apache on Windows.

After installing Let’s Encrypt pems, I had an issue about "How to renew the fullchain.pem automatically".
Yesterday I made a simple batch file. I think it resolves the issue.

If you are interested in the batch file, go here.

I couldn't renew my certs by letsencrypt win simple because of something like this. I gave up to use letsencrypt win simple and looked for other ways. Then I found Letsencrypt.sh. I use it on Cygwin and made another batch for renewing. If you are still interested, see my post.

I think i will wait for win 10 update...

Some of linux script will work natively on windows after august update. Maybe letsencrypt can work without cygwin.

Yes, I heard such things, too. Is your web server on Windows10 PC? Good!
I cannot upgrade mine because of its hardware poorness and will continue to use it until Windows7 EOL.

You don't need cygwin. It will run directly on windows but requires .NET.

There is renewal bug in the win-simple script but it has been fixed in version 1.8 and re-introduced in version 1.9 Smile.

Is this about win-simple script?

But I failed the renewal when I used win-simple script version1.9.

Please tell me your exact steps if you don't mind.

Thanks.

It's nice. I'm glad to hear that. Very Happy

By the way, we had jimski's report that said he had a renewing job by version 1.9 successfully. But I couldn't by 1.9.1. So I asked him to tell his exact steps and haven't his reply yet.

The bug was really fixed or not? On your system, is the renewal for Apache good?

If the script was fixed, my batch for renewal would work well. Or maybe the script has new features for it. I don't know about it because now I use dehydrated and it works well at the renewal.

When the time is there, I prefer go to renew manualy.

letsencrypt-win-simple was creating a renew task in the task sheduler, I deleted it.

I think it's no problem. But what do you mean "manually"? Manually or automatically, I think you will use "letsencrypt.exe" at the time.

When I ran "letsencrypt.exe" with --renew option at the first renewal, it gave me "Checking Renewals Checking Manual MyDomain.com (My DocumentRoot) Renew After 2016/07/12" but it didn't take any actual acts. I still had old certs after that. So I'd like to know new behaviors of the script in the situation.

Yep, I will use "letsencrypt.exe" at the time.

When renew is not working, I can do then again:

>letsencrypt --san
..
Which host do you want to get a certificate for: m
Enter a host name: apachelounge.com
Enter all Alternative Names seperated by a comma apachelounge.com,www.apachelounge.com,...,...,..
..
..

Then copy manual.

I understood the meaning of your "manually".

This is the same I did on June 23 when the renew was not working.
Thanks for your reply.

As i see, letsencrypt don't support wildcard for now. Sad

So it's a bit hard to use it on dynamic hosting.
