Install instructions

Open joallard opened this issue 9 years ago • 8 comments

If I follow the installation steps, when I run rake letsencrypt_plugin:install:migrations, the environment is loaded, our initializer too and looks for the YML file. Maybe we should say to put the config file before running rake or even installing the gem.

Other comment,

$ openssl genrsa 4096 > key/keyfile.pem
bash: key/keyfile.pem: No such file or directory
$ mkdir key
$ openssl genrsa 4096 > key/keyfile.pem

A little mkdir hint wouldn't hurt ;)

And as #15 mentions, we should warn not to have the output cert dir key with Heroku, as it will cause challenge storage to fail.

Ok, thanks! I'll update install instructions

Also, it should be made clear you need to blank the challenge_dir_name: 'challenge' in the config file if you choose to store the challenge in the DB.

Im confused. Does this mean that if you use heroku, you need to skip step 5 of the installation instructions? I don't understand what the conclusion to this issue is. thanks!

As it is mentioned on wiki:

when running on Heroku output directory will be ignored - certificates will be displayed on console instead of saving on disk

OK, but do I need to do anything with this instruction (from the above comment)? "Also, it should be made clear you need to blank the challenge_dir_name: 'challenge' in the config file if you choose to store the challenge in the DB." It seems to have helped 2 other people.

Do you have DB set up correctly on Heroku?

Hi - yes. I set it up at the outset.
