Certificate long time to issue
-
The full log on the filesystem would probably have more to show, but IIRC at that point is when it's listening and waiting for LE to connect and pull the file contents to validate.
LE has to validate each FQDN in the cert separately.
-
No it does ot listen yet.
Only after those checks I can see socat bound to port 80 on desired IP.
After that cert is issued in 4 seconds.I`m now almost 100% positive this is ACME issue.

How long does it take?:time netstat -an -p tcp | grep LISTEN -
instant
While in "wait mode" (nestat) checks before it even starts to listen on 80:
tcp4 0 0 192.168.166.76.2222 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 192.168.166.77.443 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 192.168.166.77.80 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 127.0.0.1.44443 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 192.168.166.76.10050 *.* LISTEN tcp6 0 0 *.44441 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.44441 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.44442 *.* LISTEN tcp6 0 0 *.44442 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 192.168.166.76.443 *.* LISTENAnd when it listens and actually doing verification:
tcp4 0 0 *.80 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 192.168.166.76.2222 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 192.168.166.77.443 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 192.168.166.77.80 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 127.0.0.1.44443 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 192.168.166.76.10050 *.* LISTEN tcp6 0 0 *.44441 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.44441 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 *.44442 *.* LISTEN tcp6 0 0 *.44442 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 192.168.166.76.443 *.* LISTENI`m really out of ideas but unable to upgrade to alpha

Do you suspect haproxy?There was 1.8.19 just 2 days ago and already here: https://www.freshports.org/net/haproxy
:)

I guess i would put several more debug output statements like
_debug "Using: netstat"into the acme.sh code surrounding functions that can be 'suspected' they might take a while and are between the parts where the current logs show the time is being spend.. Try and figure out what exact command is really taking the time.. -
Or I could just migrate to DNS verification which is better anyway :)
-
Ummm one more observation.
Cert was renewed today at 3:16 and it had 14 names in it. It renewed in 180 seconds which is waaaay faster than renew via WebGui.So I`m calling it bug or regression or whatever :)
SYS LOG: Feb 14 03:16:00 php Acme, renewing certificate: EXCHANGE_LE Feb 14 03:18:37 php Acme, storing new certificate: EXCHANGE_LE -
At home I have same setup 12 domains 30 seconds but I`m on alpha build 2.4.5 :)

OK ACME is to blame:
This code:
if _exists "netstat"; then _debug "Using: netstat" if netstat -h 2>&1 | grep "\-p proto" >/dev/null; then #for windows version netstat tool netstat -an -p tcp | grep "LISTENING" | grep ":$_port " else if netstat -help 2>&1 | grep "\-p protocol" >/dev/null; then netstat -an -p tcp | grep LISTEN | grep ":$_port " elif netstat -help 2>&1 | grep -- '-P protocol' >/dev/null; then #for solaris netstat -an -P tcp | grep "\.$_port " | grep "LISTEN" elif netstat -help 2>&1 | grep "\-p" >/dev/null; then #for full linux netstat -ntpl | grep ":$_port " else #for busybox (embedded linux; no pid support) netstat -ntl 2>/dev/null | grep ":$_port " fi fi return 0 fiIt executes "if netstat -h 2>&1 | grep "-p proto" >/dev/null; then" which executes netstat -h and this takes long time as it resolves and trying to resolve all IPs :) then when it doesn`t find "-p proto" moves on to next command which is OK for our firewall. I removed first IF after _debug "Using: netstat" and verification is done in like 10 seconds for 12 hosts :)
So yeah this is bug.
Code that works:
if _exists "netstat"; then _debug "Using: netstat" else if netstat -help 2>&1 | grep "\-p protocol" >/dev/null; then netstat -an -p tcp | grep LISTEN | grep ":$_port " elif netstat -help 2>&1 | grep -- '-P protocol' >/dev/null; then #for solaris netstat -an -P tcp | grep "\.$_port " | grep "LISTEN" elif netstat -help 2>&1 | grep "\-p" >/dev/null; then #for full linux netstat -ntpl | grep ":$_port " else #for busybox (embedded linux; no pid support) netstat -ntl 2>/dev/null | grep ":$_port " fi return 0 fi -
Time to call Neil ^^

Reported on github.But I still dont understand why this method is not supported or efficient?
It works really well... -
It's not supported/efficient when hooking to HAProxy because it's redundant. HAProxy can already serve the files, there is no need for ACME to also be a web server involved in the process. ACME can drop the files in a directory, HAproxy can serve them up from there, and it's done. Just needs that python script and settings from the link I shared earlier in the thread.
-
Well we all have our own opinions.
For me it is simpler:- I don`t need special settings
- I don`t need any scripts
- I can do it out of the box
- Didn`t fail once (except long times because of acme.sh bug)
If netgate can include that script and integrate it, that would be cool :)
