You have been subscribed to a public bug: The `certbot` package comes with `/etc/cron.d/certbot` which contains a cron job that executes twice per day if `/usr/bin/certbot` is executable. There is no way to disable the cron job other than removing the executable bit from the binary.
I have my own, separate cron job configured for using certbot to renew our certificate. My cron job is in `/etc/cron.daily`, and there is necessary logic in it that the job in `/etc/cron.d/certbot` doesn't have. It should be possible to set a variable in `/etc/default/certbot` or something to prevent the cron job in `/etc/cron.d/certbot` from running. ** Affects: python-certbot (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- should be possible to disable certbot cron job https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1706409 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
