Unable to provision Lets Encrypt Certificate after moving box to new host

Maintenance

I decided to move my box to a new VM and clean up the 2+ years of updates and cruft as well as move the box’s address to a new domain. I copied over my entire user-data folder after installing on the new box but when I try provisioning a certificate I get the following error:

Something unexpected went wrong: urn:acme:error:malformed :: The request message was malformed :: Invalid key in certificate request :: Key too large: 8192 > 4096

I tried renaming the /home/user-data/ssl/lets_encrypt folder but the new request throws the same error.

Have you tried running?
mailinabox/management/ssl_certificates.py

If you aren’t interested in preserving any old SSL information, you could simply delete the ssl folder entirely and run mailinabox command again? It would force it to recreate what’s missing I believe.

I haven’t tried running the script manually yet. I’ll try that and if it fails I’ll trash my SSL folder. Thanks!
