Public bug reported: The certbot agent on 18.04 LTS is too old to automatically create accounts at LetsEncrypt. When trying to run something like:
certbot certonly -m s...@example.com -n --agree-tos -d www.example.com The following message is returned and no cert is generated: acme.messages.Error: urn:acme:error:unauthorized :: The client lacks sufficient authorization :: Account creation on ACMEv1 is disabled. Please upgrade your ACME client to a version that supports ACMEv2 / RFC 8555. See https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/end-of-life-plan-for- acmev1/88430 for details. During October, this will happen when LetsEncrypt is running an ACMEv1 "brownout". See https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/end-of-life-plan- for-acmev1/88430 for details. No newer version is available in bionic-backports. ** Affects: python-certbot (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1847776 Title: Certbot fails auto-account creation via ACMEv1 protocol To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-certbot/+bug/1847776/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
