Hello, this message is an information feedback.

i use virtualmin <> webmin on my server, and i use letsencrypt for my ssl certificat.
its very simple for generate a certificate on new virtualmin version ...but...

Letsencrypt use "urllib" for generate certificat in this folder :
.well-known/acme-challenge

the user-agent "urllib" its in the default list on admintools (htaccess).

for automatic generation of letsencrypt certificate works correctly in the virtualmin panel, remove "urllib" from the list of user-agents to block. ...and then it works!

I took some time to find which was crashing the certificate request.

it might be well to add this information somewhere so that it is read

Thank you

Hello,

thank you very much for sharing your experience!
Indeed, such user agent is in the blocked list by default, so if you are blocking user-agents, you have to remove it.

Thank you again!
