Good Evening,
I am working on installing Synchronet on Ubuntu 20.02. I apologize if this has been asked once before but could not see anything when skimming the messages. What version of Python is preferred when building SBBS. 2.x or 3.x?

I don't think it matters. It's only required for building libmozjs which predates Python 3.

Thanks, It's listed as a required in the wiki. I will try it with the default Python 3.8 install.
Worked with Python 3.8. I did have to install python-is-python3 for the install scrip to pick-up python.
On a side note, I had to modify the letsyncrypt.js file to get letsencrypt to work. I had to add a / before .well-known on lines 86 - 89 & 96.
I'm haveing fun getting the BBS up and running. :)

I didn't catch this earlier and it's something I had to fix locally (by hacking the letsyncrypt script) too.
Stock Synchronet sbbs.ini has:
RootDirectory = ../web/root
As the config directive in it.
If a trailing slash is required elsewhere, should that not be adjusted in the distribution too?
Also, the [Domains] section examples in http://wiki.synchro.net/module:letsyncrypt don't include a trailing slash on the extra web root paths as well.

lines 86 - 89 & 96.
I modified letsyncrypt.js to handle the RootDirectory without the trailing slash.
