The problem when updating to version stable-9457-(1-2)

[sword141992]

Hello! Encountered a problem while updating Jitsi to version stable-9457-(1-2). The update was from version stable-7882 to stable-9457-(1-2). Followed the instructions as follows: 1) Downloaded the necessary version with wget https://github.com/jitsi/docker-jitsi-meet/archive/refs/tags/stable-9457-2.tar.gz 2) Stopped the current containers with docker compose down 3) Copied the contents from the archive stable-9457-2.tar.gz into my directory with version stable-7882 4) Ran the script ./gen-passwords.sh 5) And created directories: mkdir -p ~/.jitsi-meet-cfg/{web,transcripts,prosody/config,prosody/prosody-plugins-custom,jicofo,jvb,jigasi,jibri} 6) Then started the docker compose

From the logs in the container docker-jitsi-meet-stable-9457-2-web-1, the error clearly arises due to the issuance of the certificate using acme.sh:

Failed to obtain a certificate from the Let's Encrypt CA.

The solution that was recently suggested at did not bring the desired result.

Putting this issue aside, I decided to update to version stable-9364-1. The steps for the update were exactly the same as described earlier. And the version stable-9364-1 was successfully installed, the certificate was issued, and Jitsi is working fine.

Initially, I assumed that the entire problem was related to updating acme.sh from version 2.8.8 to 3.0.7 as mentioned in the comment However, even after updating to version stable-9457-1, the desired result was not achieved, and the error was similar: "Failed to obtain a certificate from the Let's Encrypt CA."

I'll reiterate once again that the update was successful up to stable-9364-1.

Try deleting the acme* directories in your config/web directory and restarting the latest container images.

It seems this point was not clearly marked, which caused a misunderstanding. Let me explain in more detail:

1) There is a directory on the server ~/jitsi-meet where files from archive version 7882 are located. 2) When I stopped the docker-compose with version 7882, I deleted all contents from ~/.jitsi-meet-cfg/*. 3) Then, I downloaded version stable-9457-2, extracted it, and copied all contents with replacement into the directory ~/jitsi-meet. 4) I then created a new directory~/.jitsi-meet-cfg. 5) I run the command docker-compose up -d. 6) It pulls new images, and containers start with the new image. 7) The container web-1 encounters an error "Failed to obtain a certificate from the Let's Encrypt CA" and goes into an infinite restart loop.

There were no such issues when updating to version stable-9364-1. At step 6, the containers received a new image, started successfully, and the certificate was issued:

I tried to install the latest version from scratch, but still getting an error "Failed to obtain a certificate from the Let's Encrypt CA."

[saghul]

That's weird because in the latest version it uses ZeroSSL.

Can you try passing --force-recreate when doing the compose up?

[kenneth-meadows]

same error when trying fresh install stable-9457-2

[saghul]

Have you made sure to use the new images by doing the force recreation?

[rvanlieshout]

We have the same problemen. Even with newly built images

[saghul]

Sorry I couldn't reproduce the problem and I don't know what the problem is :-/

Can you try to start with an empty config directory?

[rvanlieshout]

Sure can. Wil do that a.s.a.p.
