After typing
/root/certbot-auto --apache certonly
I recieved this message:
The apache plugin is not working; there may be problems with your existing configuration.
The error was: NotSupportedError(‘Apache plugin support requires libaugeas0 and augeas-lenses version 1.2.0 or higher, please make sure you have you have those installed.’,)
certbot requires a more recent version of libaugeas0 than the one included in wheezy’s repository. During the installation process (i.e. when you first run ./certbot-auto), you should be getting this prompt:
To use the Apache Certbot plugin, augeas needs to be installed from wheezy-backports.
Would you like to enable the wheezy-backports repository [Y/n]?
If you skip this step (not sure what the default is, so just hitting enter might do this), the apache plugin won’t be available, and you’ll need to use something like the webroot plugin instead.
To re-install the OS dependencies, you’ll need to run rm -rf /root/.local/share/letsencrypt/ and then follow the instructions from the page you linked, starting with ./certbot-auto.
(If you don’t get that prompt at all for some reason, I’d be curious about the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*)
it’s a small tool that lets other software determine which distribution the software is running on, see https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/lsb-release. It should not have any impact on your system.
thank you. Now I see the blue screen where I’m asked which domain to use. Should I choose the main mirror of a site? I see my domain name with www and without www there…
