Ive had no issues with haaving auto renew work on other domains. This is the first time I am trying it with two subdomains on the same IP address though. I’ve tried searching for this error and could not find anything.
I’ve used the command apt-get install —only-upgrade python-certbot-apache. It says I’m already at the newest version. Am I going to have to install a different package?
@bmw@schoen Do you have any installation/upgrade advice for Ubuntu 16.04 users that are trying to use ACME v2 against the staging environment and need Certbot 0.22.2+ ?
Unfortunately, I’ve been struggling getting our PPA maintainers to package this. I think and hope a new version of python3-acme (which is all you need to solve this problem) will be uploaded soon, but it was supposed to be done days ago.
If you need a solution now, I recommend you use certbot-auto.
A newer version of python3-acme is available in our PPA with a fix for this.
Then, executed (certbot-auto) it say (Command not found)
I also did (sudo apt-get update) and (apt-get install —only-upgrade python-certbot-apache) but still the version is 0.22.2.2
When I use this command: sudo apt-get install python-certbot-apache (I’ve also tried the ones you’ve listed first) I get this output.

python-certbot-apache is already the newest version (0.25.0-2+ubuntu16.04.1+certbot+1).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 13 not upgraded.
root@xxxxxxx:~# certbot --version
certbot 0.22.2
Any ideas? The one line looks like it knows its the newest version, but when I ask for the version it gives me the old one. Do I need to set one as the one I want?

The python-certbot-apache package is version 0.25.0… however, it’s a simple transitional dummy package, and it doesn’t depend on a specific version of the current Apache plugin package, python3-certbot-apache.
You can check “dpkg -l python3-certbot-apache” but it’s almost certainly also version 0.22.2.
What happens if you run “sudo apt full-upgrade” to try to upgrade your packages?
I have the same problem on CentOS 7 with Nginx with a VPS from Contabo.
I can configure with root permissions via terminal.
I hope everybody agrees that it makes sense to add this to this post so it will solve the issue for both famous webservers.
