Requests.packages.urllib3.contrib.pyopenssl.inject_into_urllib3(): 'module' object has no attribute 'pyopenssl'

Not sure it’s a proper category for a question…

When I run certbot:

certbot certonly --webroot -w /path/to/docroot -d domain.com -d www.domain.com

I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/certbot", line 9, in <module>

Corresponding bug report on GitHub.

I’m running Debian 8 (jessie). I have access to root account on the server, and there no any control panel there.

Thanks in advance.

hi x-yuri

you have posted in the correct forum

can you please run the following command

pip freeze

you should get something that looks like the below (working copy of certbot)

depending on your python install this may not work

i suspect the issue you are facing is due to the fact the pyopenssl has not be installed as a module

can you also articulate how you installed the certbot package?
