We will look into this, as it is certainly something that we should handle, but to work around this, replace the double quotes in comment of server_tokens

Thanks for the additional information!
After reading a comment on another thread by user @egberts, I ran the following command:
grep -r -P '[^\x00-\x7f]' /etc/apache2 /etc/letsencrypt /etc/nginx
That command found the offending character "´" in one .conf file in the comment. After removing it (you can edit comments as you wish) and reloading nginx, everything worked again.
@TommyZG can u tell me change which file ?
i found that when i use certbot-auto in windows remote, it throw me this error ,but when i use it in linux remote ,it works great
I had the same problem. I've found the following workaround (on Ubuntu):
bash
sudo locale-gen "en_US.UTF-8"
sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
to the file /etc/default/locale
.After doing it, running cerbot --nginx
successes.
Hi! The reason is that if you have some non ascii letters in nginx config (even in comments!!!) it will not work.
Closing in favor of duplicate #5337, which has a PR at #5341.
@TommyZG can u tell me change which file ?
It was in one of my .conf files. You have others. It was in the comment line.
I got a similar issue, it was in /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf line 13 to 17:
# 1) limit_req ^`^s to limit the rate of requests from one IP
# 2) limit_conn ^`^s to limit the number of connections from one IP
# 3) client_body_timeout ^`^s to close the connections with slow body
# 4) client_header_timeout ^`^s to close the connections with slow headers
# 5) send_timeout ^`^s If the client does not receive anything within this time, the connection is closed.
I removed those comments and it worked.
Thanks @egberts & @TommyZG for the grep tip.
Hy ✌🏻,
you should only using other terminal.
I have the same problem while used mac terminal, than i used windows bash to get it works.
I had the same problem. I've found the following workaround (on Ubuntu):
- Run in a console:
shell sudo locale-gen "en_US.UTF-8" sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
- Add line
LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8"
to the file/etc/default/locale
.- Reconnect SSH.
After doing it, running
cerbot --nginx
successes.
Thanks, it worked for me.
