Rate-limiting on the Lets Encrypt API causes letsencrypt:enable to hang rather than throw or warn

  • I don't think it's a rate-limiting issue, since i'm not getting error messages to that affect and i have been attempting trying again days later all week
  • more info here, i tacked on my issue to a closed one i suspect may be relevant, in case it makes more sense to re-open than to treat here

SURPRISE i was just rate-limited for fumbling too many times in a 24 hour window! maybe there could be an error or warning instead of a timeout when the underlying API response is

We actually use certbot so maybe this should be reported to them upstream?
