[TODO]

Do not use sudo if you cannot properly configure it.

Notice: This wiki is not complete yet.

Using sudo is not recommended. If not properly configured to not ask for password it may cause permission issues when running commands from the cronjob (like renew), resulting in some or all of your certificates not being renewed and eventually will expire.

If you need root, please su to root first, and then install acme.sh and use it.

#unstall for current user
acme.sh --uninstall

#change to root
sudo su

#install again for root user
curl https://get.acme.sh | sh

#use it
bash
acme.sh --issue -d .....

Now, if you are completely sure of the issues and the possibilities with the usage of sudo and still want to use it, you can pass the --force parameter to work with sudo.
