My web server is (include version): OpenSuse 42.3

Thanks !

I have the same issue, with the same OS version. Tried removing /opt/eff.org and bootstraping again, but the same error occurs.

[SFA]

Yes, same here. Any idea/support ?

[DLoader]

I had the same problem on OpenSuse 42.3.

If you look at the “override_suse.py” file in the directory

“/opt/eff.org/certbot/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/certbot_apache/"

you will see that someone recently modified it to create the “handle_mods” element instead of the “handle_modules” element in the OS_DEFAULTS array.

If you look in the other “override_” files, you will see that they all use the “handle_modules” element name.

I changed “handle_mods=False” to “handle_modules=False” and it now works fine.

Cheers.

Thanks for the investigation ! It works now

Someone (one of you?) opened an issue on Certbot’s GitHub.

Thanks for reporting, and thanks to @DLoader for investigating! We’ve put out a point release, 0.27.1, which should fix this issue. Re-run certbot-auto to upgrade
