I installed gluu 3.1.6 in Ubuntu 18.04. Everything seems to be up and running. So, got bold and wanted to add a LetsEncrypt certificate to it. To install certbot client, I tried logging in to the gluu-server, but once inside none of the commands to install certbot seem to work and it is throwing an error about not being able to resolve dns names. /etc/resolv.conf is a link to ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf and that is not writable. Any idea on how I can get unblocked? Honestly, I don't know if this is a question for the Gluu team or the Ubuntu team, but am hoping someone here might be able to help.
Ubuntu 18.04

For anyone looking, I just created the (non-existent) file and got it working. Doesn't matter if it gets reset since I need this only once. I'll wait for a more correct answer though.

Thanks. We'll take a look. One thing to note is that you might run into more random issues with Ubuntu 18. It's not officially supported by Gluu 3.1.6.

Hi Sved, I couldn't reproduce the problem you faced. Can you please provide the exact version of gluu-server you're using? I tried t use this deb: bionic-devel/gluu-server-3.1.6_1-12~bionic+Ub18.04_amd64.deb and I faced different certbot error. Since, Bionic gluu-server binaries are still under development, so I would request you to try the version 4.0 as well. --- Thanks Ganesh

Hi Ganesh, Thank you so much for looking into this. I tried this on an AWS instance. Will try to reproduce this and let you know if this is AWS specific. I will also try 4.0 as you suggested. Thank you. Sved
