Tahoe remove pdf certs from servers #262

Closed melvinsoft closed 5 years ago

melvinsoft commented 5 years ago

In Tahoe we use HTML certificates, which is included in the edx-platform code. We don't need the legacy PDF certs app.

As we know this app was the cause of the outage, people was trying to generate example certs, and XQueue was trying to generate them in an endless loop, creating random folders in /tmp until we run out of inodes on the both servers.

This PR removes the app from the installation process.

Thank you gentlemens!

@OmarIthawi No, we aren't. We only rely on HTML certificates.
