Bugs like this are very difficult to reproduce and to investigate if we
wait the certs expiration and are forced to find a quick "workaround";
we should force a renewal (via CLI) before the expiration date and share
the logs to see what's happening.

I'd like to help but I'm not a sysadmin on bayfront nor on berlin.

I think this kind "statefulness issues" are affecting other users.

Happy hacking! Gio'
