SLE: installing certbot and its NGINX plugin

openSUSE Tumbleweed

Installing certbot and its NGINX plugin on openSUSE Tumbleweed was just straightforward:

https://software.opensuse.org/download/package?package=certbot&project=home%3Aecsos%3Aserver

zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:ecsos:server/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/home:ecsos:server.repo
zypper refresh
zypper install certbot

Then, install python36-certbot-nginx and finally run:


sudo certbot --nginx

SLE 15 SP2

But I’m trying to do the same on SLE 15 SP2. I tried:

openSUSE backports repo
openSUSE Leap 15.2 repos
Instructions here: https://en.opensuse.org/Let’s_Encrypt
Couldn’t figure out how to use this by command-line: https://packagehub.suse.com/packages/certbot/
…

What am I missing? Is there a convenient way to install certbot and its NGINX plugin by the command line on SLE 15 SP2?

This is not the SLE forum. You maybe better off at http://forums.suse.com/

Hi
Even better to head to https://community.suse.com/ (new location)…

Or you can:

Enable SLE Backports on your SLE15SP2:
**sudo SUSEConnect -p PackageHub/15.2/x86_64
**
Refresh repos:
**zypper ref
**
Install python3 certbot and nginx package:
zypper install python3-certbot python3-certbot-nginx

It solved my problem! How can I mark your post as answer?

Just by saying so, as you did above.
