Package: certbot
Version: 0.21.1-1~bpo9+1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
on certificate renewal certbot will stop Apache and start it afterwards.
The relevant commands are pre_hook and post_hook in
/etc/letsencrypt/renewal/CERTNAME.conf.
Default behaviour is do stop/start Apache using apachectl which fails in
installations running systemd. Apache will stop, but not start again.
Fix: use systemctl to start/stop Apache.
Regards
Jan
