With all command's that installs python packages

No, letsencrypt is using setuptools v20.2.2, which doesn’t have that problem. The version of setuptools used also hasn’t been changed in a year.

It’s working now. All certificates have been renewed

Confirmed. It’s working again. Thanks for the fast fix (who ever did it).

Confirmed here as well.
Thanks.

For the record, what was the issue ?

I confirm as well that I was able to generate a new certificate. And, SSL certificate was not the issue.

Great! Thanks for the fast response.

Thank you it’s working now

I had same trouble! Worked perfectly :sunglasses:

hi all

A) Please add the following flag to your certbot-auto commands

--no-self-upgrade (certbot-auto only) prevent the certbot-auto script
from upgrading itself to newer released versions

It's good to upgrade certbot-auto regulalry however this should be done in a controlled manner (i.e. where you can choose)

B) The root cause was that the certificate served by PyPI was having an issue. As the packages are usually obtained from there the issue and the resolution lie with PyPi fixing their certificate related issues

Well done @fracolo for identifying the root cause

PyPI wasn’t having any certificates issues, as far as i know, though.
