Hi,

I’m trying to install the Let’s Encrypt AutoSSL plugin on my dedicated server via SSH (Putty) and I get this error:

What can I do to fix it? I asked SiteGround and they told me to ask here.

Thanks

That's good to know.

This, believe is related to the fact it's attempting to install the v1 package of cPanel-letsencrypt. I run the same script on my server and it pulls the v2 package:

Code:

info [install_lets_encrypt_autossl_provider] Starting yum execution “--assumeyes --config /etc/yum.conf --downloadonly --downloaddir /tmp/I_34_ctjX0 install cpanel-letsencrypt-v2 --disablerepo=epel”.

Since you're using v66 of cPanel/WHM I believe you'd need to update in order to be able to use this provider as the version you're running is severely out of date and has been end of life for a significant amount of time. No updates to things such as the letsencrypt provider are currently being provided to you.

First of All, you have to Update WHM/cPanel to Latest Version

then simply Run this Command as root.

/usr/local/cpanel/scripts/install_lets_encrypt_autossl_provider

and Enjoy :)

CentOS6 is no longer supported by cPanel/WHM . Upgrade to CloudLinux or Centos7 in order to Install any Modules
