Error when execute ./certbot-auto --apache certonly

Hi when i’m trying to execute ./certbot-auto --apache certonly i’m getting the following error

“Installing Python packages…
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/tmp/tmp.m7L4Ixj0pi/pipstrap.py”, line 184, in
exit(main())
File “/tmp/tmp.m7L4Ixj0pi/pipstrap.py”, line 171, in main

I cannot figure out how to solve this.
i am on debian 8

Thanks

Hi @eric_t

what happens, if you install certbot-auto again?

wget https://dl.eff.org/certbot-auto
chmod a+x certbot-auto

Hi @JuergenAuer

thanks for the reply. I have tried your solution but i’m getting the same error. I think that as a workaround i will use certbot with debian 9 where i was able to get it working. But if you have other solution please let me know i will try.

Thanks

Is it possible that you have low memory or low hard drive space so that one of the subprocesses is running out of either of these resources?

Hi @schoen
i don’t think this could be the problem because i have 8gb of ram and more than 20Gb on my hard drive

Thanks

It looks like Conda’s Python installation is first one in your PATH. What happens if you remove it from your PATH and run certbot-auto again?
