@ajlewis2 great! The current weather and forecast will be sent approx every 6 hours

@matthew @farooqkz Lego is good - I'm using it with DNS Auth and it's reliable

@albert @pkotrcka yes, it should be enough 😆

@pkotrcka yes, it is

I'm sure that @pkotrcka will appreciate this

@rubenerd 🫂

@kaveman thank you! I can’t wait!

@pkotrcka you're still in time...

@farooqkz I agree. On many of my servers, I'm using acme.sh or lego. Or acme client on OpenBSD, of course

@lanodan when I create some cron jobs, I force the "--nginx" or "--apache" - so it will never start listening. The script shipped with Ubuntu seems to fallback to "standalone" mode if nginx|apache isn't running.

@monospace I've updated the original post to clarify that systemd has done its job, but the interaction caused problems

@monospace Exactly, I agree.

@monospace the certbot renewal cronjob is usually enforcing the --nginx (or --apache), so it would fail if nginx/apache is down. This script tries to detect if nginx or apache is running and, if not, it's using the certbot as standalone. This created the problem - otherwise, it would just fail and retry the morning after.

@pkotrcka Grazie! Seguiremo il consiglio 🙂

@monospace I didn't say it's a problem "only on Linux". It's more of a "let's make things complex" problem. The fact that it's never happened on BSDs is directly related to the fact that they don't provide that kind of automation - so it can't break anything. 🙂

@joel 😆 "now with more unattended-upgrades"

@sheogorath it's probably something related to unattended-upgrade - I'll double check the logs

@hyperreal it usually run in --nginx mode - but looking at the logs, it seems it didn't detect a running nginx so switched back to the standalone mode

@farooqkz looking at the logs, it seems that certbot will run in --nginx mode if it finds an active nginx - but it didn't find it when launched, so used the standalone mode

EuroBSDCon starts tomorrow!

Packing done, slides ready - see you in Zagreb!
