SSL for disabled servers still renewed

When a site is disabled, the certbot renew command still tries to renew this website, is that not wrong ? should this not be disabled with the website being disabled ?

Is it the certbot command itself which is trying to renew the certificate? Or is the renewal being kicked off by Virtualmin?

In the former case, there's nothing we can do about it.

Ah ... you should turn that off, as Virtualmin has its own built-in renewal feature

Make sure you're running Virtualmin 6.15 or later - older versions had a bug that prevented renewal of the newer Let's Encrypt certs due to a change in CA.

If you select a domain for which automatic renewal isn't happening and open the SSL Certificate page, what does it show for the expiry date and renewal option?
