I have already installed and running certbot-auto in my Ubuntu 14.04 LTS server.
Apparently, thought, the certbot-auto renew doesn’t work. I discovered I had to manually renew my certifications by running:
./certbot-auto certonly --force-renewal -d <my domains> -vvv
When I tried
./certbot-auto renew --dry-run
or event ./certbot-auto renew
I get the following on the log file:
360:DEBUG:certbot.main:Root logging level set at 20 361:INFO:certbot.main:Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log 361:DEBUG:certbot.main:certbot version: 0.12.0 361:DEBUG:certbot.main:Arguments: ['--dry-run'] 361:DEBUG:certbot.main:Discovered plugins: PluginsRegistry(PluginEntryPoint#standalone,PluginEntryPoint#manual,PluginEntryPoint#nginx,PluginEntryPoint#webroot,PluginEntryPoint#apache,PluginEntryPoint#null) 362:DEBUG:certbot.main:Exiting abnormally: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/root/.local/share/letsencrypt/bin/letsencrypt", line 11, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/root/.local/share/letsencrypt/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/certbot/main.py", line 896, in main return config.func(config, plugins) File "/root/.local/share/letsencrypt/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/certbot/main.py", line 702, in renew renewal.handle_renewal_request(config) File "/root/.local/share/letsencrypt/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/certbot/renewal.py", line 370, in handle_renewal_request raise errors.Error("Currently, the renew verb is capable of either " Error: Currently, the renew verb is capable of either renewing all installed certificates that are due to be renewed or renewing a single certificate specified by its name. If you would like to renew specific certificates by their domains, use the certonly command. The renew verb may provide other options for selecting certificates to renew in the future.
Anyone has any idea why certbot-auto renew fails?
My cronjob is
23 */12 * * * certbot-auto renew --quiet --no-self-upgrade >/dev/null 2>&1
Thank you
