auto-renew certbot with Cloudflare
I am running nginx and cloudflare. For nginx ssl I use letsencrypt via certbot, which handles the connection from my server to cloudflare. cloudflare itself has an additional certificate, which handles the connections between cloudflare and the website users. The problem is now that I have to pause cloudlfare everytime when I renew letsencrypt:
sudo certbot renew
Else I get an error:
Incorrect validation certificate for tls-sni-01 challenge requested.
To fix these errors, please make sure that your domain name was
entered correctly and the DNS A/AAAA record(s) for that domain
contain(s) the right IP address.
Is there another way to auto renew it without pausing cloudflare?

I ran into this before and thought some Cloudflare page rules would help
Rule 1 http://.domain.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/ => cache level = standard
Rule 2 http://*.domain.com/ => Always use HTTPS
This seemed to work fine for all my domains until just today, one of them failed to renew certbot correctly, so I am also interested in anybody else's input.
