Acme.sh: add an option to re-try in debug mode

[centminmod]

when acme.sh fails to issue a certificate due to various errors like dns, verification failures etc, would be nice if you could automatically re-try but with --debug 2 flag enabled for the 2nd attempt ?

maybe a new flag like --debug-retry which triggers a re-try with --debug 2 ?

@centminmod
There is already some retry logic in the code. you can search for "retry" keyword.

It should retry if there is fatal error in the process.

Anyway, Please give me give me more details, let me think about it.

[centminmod]

well currently if a user runs acme.sh issue and it fails, they have to run it again with --debug 2

the suggestion is to be able to auto re-run with --debug 2 enabled again.

[Neilpang]

@centminmod
OK.
I'm adding a LOG_LEVEL option, which works together with the LOG_FILE option.

It can log the process. if error happens, the user can check the log file.

Is that ok?

[centminmod]

so that would log the same detailed verbose output as --debug 2 ? if so that would be perfect :)

the link to https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh/wiki/How-to-debug-acme.sh might confuse users of my acmetool.sh wrapper that uses acme.sh as the method used to debug would slightly differ https://community.centminmod.com/posts/36908/

an option to disable the link to https://github.com/Neilpang/acme.sh/wiki/How-to-debug-acme.sh or edit it ?

seem to be getting an error if i set log-level ?

@centminmod
Sorry, it was a typo.

[Neilpang]

@centminmod

The default log level is: 1
which logs same as the --debug detail.

you can set log level to: 2,

which logs same as --debug 2

[centminmod]

@Neilpang cheers looks to be working https://community.centminmod.com/posts/36941/ 👍
