"Invalid response" error when enabling SSL support via Let's Encrypt GUI

[baijianpeng]

Today I re-installed my server, totally new fresh installation of Ubuntu 16.04, then install latest VestaCP (0.9.8-17).

Next, when I create new domain, I checked the "SSL support" and also checked "Lets Encrypt support", but when I click the Save button, I got following error message in a pop-up dialog:

Error: Invalid response from http://www.joomlagate.com/.well-known/a ... HgHnBbsOq4: \

I also tried to enable SSL/Let's Encrypt support via CLI, with following command:

Code: Select all

v-add-letsencrypt-domain USERNAME joomlagate.com

but system returned following error message:

sed: can't read /usr/local/vesta/data/queue/letsencrypt.pipe: No such file or directory

I don't know why I can not get it work? Did I missed something?

Thank you.

This is a know bug, alredy reported.

I had checked that folder, there is no file named "letsencrypt.pipe".

I noticed that on this page: https://github.com/Daplie/letsencrypt-cli ,they said user need to install node.js and install LetsEncrypt first.

Does this mean that I should manually install "let's encrypt client" on my Ubuntu BEFORE I run the above mentioned command?

If it is true, why not just install node.js and install "let's encrypt client" at the same time when installing VestaCP itself?

Thank you.

Today I tried the "command line" method, and got the same error message:

Code: Select all

#v-add-letsencrypt-domain [user] [domain]
 sed: can't read /usr/local/vesta/data/queue/letsencrypt.pipe: No such file or directory

Then I followed this topic:

viewtopic.php?f=17&t=13171&p=53565&hili ... ipe#p53577

Then I checked the /home/[user]/conf/web/ folder, and noticed that there are 4 new files generated:

sapache2.conf
ssl.joomlagate.com.ca
ssl.joomlagate.com.crt
ssl.joomlagate.com.key
ssl.joomlagate.com.pem

Does this means that I have to use the file sapache2.conf to configue SSL related parameters such as "http/2" and "OCSP Stapling"?

My VestaCP installation is the default type, use both Apache2 and Nginx on Ubuntu 16.04. I remember I should use "snginx.conf" to configure those parameters. But now the file snginx.conf is empty.

What should I do now?

Thank you.

i have encountered this too but was able to make it work.

make sure proxy support is enabled . e.g default

then tick the box letsencrypt and save :)

touch /usr/local/vesta/data/queue/letsencrypt.pipe as root
then set permissions as follows:

-rwxr-x--- 1 root root 0 Feb 7 21:31 /usr/local/vesta/data/queue/letsencrypt.pipe

Next turn off SSL via GUI, save.
Turn on SSL via GUI, save.

Worked for me.

Cheers

There is no file named "letsencrypt.pipe" in the folder "/usr/local/vesta/data/queue/".

Do yo mean I create a new empty file and name it as letsencrypt.pipe?

[skurudo]

Code: Select all

sudo touch /usr/local/vesta/data/queue/letsencrypt.pipe

[baijianpeng]

Understand now. Thank you. I will try this trick later (at present I am using another letsencrypt-vesta script instead of the built-in SSL).
