[Closed] Help test the new letsencrypt-auto script

We’re giving the letsencrypt-auto script a big refresh, and we need your help to test it. The new version…

  • Removes our dependency on git
  • Provides a signature-vouched upgrade mechanism for the install script itself
  • Verifies Python packages with sha256 and pins them to prevent regressions
  • Improves performance by avoiding unnecessary installation work
  • Makes many other fixes

It passes our automated tests and works on our own machines, but we’d like to confirm it works on your real-world setups as well. Do you have time to run 2 commands? If so, you can help out by following the instructions at the link below and posting your results in this thread.

Many thanks!

Ran on CentOS 7, but can’t get past the upgrade. I can paste the whole output if you really want, but the core error is as follows:

Unpacking /tmp/peep-qZn3AW/mock-1.3.0.tar.gz
Running setup.py egg_info for package from file:///tmp/peep-qZn3AW/mock-1.3.0.tar.gz
mock requires setuptools>=17.1. Aborting installation

Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS worked OK.

Upgraded to letsencrypt 0.1.22 and running again gave;

./letsencrypt-auto --version
Checking for new version...
Requesting root privileges to run letsencrypt...
sudo /home/user/.local/share-test/letsencrypt/bin/letsencrypt --version
letsencrypt 0.1.22

On item 3 of the instructions it says try "letsencrypt --version" which gave;
-bash: letsencrypt: command not found

CentOS release 6.7
Python 2.6.6

without --debug flag doesn't give a version number ( although does say to use the --debug flag).

using --debug

Upgrading letsencrypt-auto 0.1.21 to 0.1.22...

then;

./letsencrypt-auto --version --debug

Cheers,

That’s a success! We didn’t mean for you to manually run letsencrypt --version; I’ve reworded the instructions to make it clearer. Thanks for the report!

I’m going to see about removing mock from the le-auto manifest since it’s causing trouble. It’s used only for tests, so we were going to take it out anyway. Thanks for the excellent, detailed reports!

I tried it on Debian Unstable on amd64. It seems to be hitting the same issue as https://github.com/letsencrypt/letsencrypt/issues/1646

In BootstrapGentooCommon() you're emerge-ing dependencies with the --noreplace switch. This causes the following:

Emerging (1 of 1) dev-python/virtualenv-13.1.2::gentoo
(...)

Here you're seeing 7 packages (dependencies of other packages) which were already installed on my testing machine (VirtualBox) being recorded in the world file. This is unwanted behaviour.

For dependencies, you should add the --oneshot switch. (Valid for emerge and, as far as I know also forpmerge. See my PR on GitHub for a commit to letsencrypt-auto.) However, if a package doesn't depend on another package, it can be deinstalled when the user runs emerge --depclean. I'll check for a solution for preventing already installed packages being recorded in the world file, while new packages still will be recorded..

Furthermore, the client runs on Gentoo.

Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.5 Client machine

  1. I download the script “letsencrypt-auto.”

  2. Applied the permissions to the script -----
    root# chmod a+x /Users/adminuser/letsencrypt-auto

  3. ran “./letsencrypt-auto --debug --version”

  4. Resulted;

[server:~] root# ./letsencrypt-auto --debug --version
grep: /etc/os-release: No such file or directory
Bootstrapping dependencies via Mac OS X…
Error: Cowardly refusing to sudo brew install
You can use brew with sudo, but only if the brew executable is owned by root.
However, this is both not recommended and completely unsupported so do so at
your own risk.

Tried the same thing as an adminuser, got the same output

Unless you are asking to substitute the “letsencrypt-auto” on the letsencrypt folder where the actual installation is located.
Right now everything is working fine. But for testing, since I have backups of the original installation, I can try to do that. However I need confirmation if is that what you want to do. I guess is missing more information from you to how to install the script.

Suggestions?

Try running letsencrypt-auto in a non-root shell. brew is bailing out because it doesn’t want to be run as root. letsencrypt-auto doesn’t try to run it as root, but that’s what happened since it was started at a root prompt. Perhaps we should add our own advisory message to the Mac bootstrapper. Thanks for the test!

Looks like you don’t have an EPEL mirror enabled, and that’s where python-virtualenv lives. EPEL isn’t around on CentOS by default; maybe we should enable it in the bootstrap script. It’s a little intrusive, but it’s consistent with our treatment of the backports repo in our Debian scripts. What do you think?

Opened a bug on this, in case you’re interested in watching it: https://github.com/letsencrypt/letsencrypt/issues/2158. Thanks for the good test report!

It is not working for me (Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS); it gets as far as Checking for new version... and then exits silently with status 1.

When it exits, it does not clean up the temporary directory (/tmp/tmp.htNqxu1ToL); I have 16 of them so far.

If I manually run python2.7 /tmp/tmp.y2BCTAyeYz/fetch.py --latest-version, it gives me this error:

Couldn't download https://raw.githubusercontent.com/letsencrypt/letsencrypt/letsencrypt-auto-release-testing/pypi.json. HTTP Error 404: Not Found

Hold that thought; I’m in the middle of putting up a new version over top of the old one. That’s why it failed just now.

OK, I’ll test the new version when you’re done.

To fix the issue where it leaves behind $TEMP_DIR on failure, you can:

trap 'rm -rf "$TEMP_DIR"' 0

This will ensure the directory is removed at script exit, even if it exits on an error.
