Hi,I noticed that the backups had stopped working. None were listed even though I have plenty of remote backups available. Tried to turn off and then turn on backups, but turning off doesn't work. After a few seconds the slide button remains on. Tried to reboot in case this would fix it, but then noticed that the FreedomBox was not reachable by web. Luckily I could still get in by ssh. $ sudo systemctl status apache2.service × apache2.service - The Apache HTTP Server Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/apache2.service; enabled; preset: enabled) Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Sun 2025-09-21 14:18:33 EDT; 34s ago Invocation: f65365461fa44297b30e71e11c2a6ab2 Docs: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/ Process: 10204 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/apachectl start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE) Mem peak: 8.7M CPU: 295ms Sep 21 14:18:28 fbx systemd[1]: Starting apache2.service - The Apache HTTP Server...

1. Does the file /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/freedombox-tls-site-macro.conf contain the following lines:
<IfFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/$domain/privkey.pem>
SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/$domain/fullchain.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/$domain/privkey.pem
</IfFile>
<IfFile !/etc/letsencrypt/live/$domain/privkey.pem>
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key
</IfFile>
2. Is the file
/etc/apache2/conf-available/freedombox-tls-site-macro.conf modified by
you manually? If so, copy the latest of this file[1].
3. Are you running FreedomBox 25.11? Links:1) https://salsa.debian.org/freedombox-team/freedombox/-/raw/main/data/etc/apache2/conf-available/freedombox-tls-site-macro.conf?ref_type=heads
