Added record for Let’s Encrypt authentication.
_acme-challenge txt -------------------------
However, when I tried to renew, the record disappeared. I’m not sure, but it seems to disappear after a month or two after adding. At first I thought I deleted it by mistake, but it is already the second. What’s the problem?
Thank you in advance.

Hi @siche,
It’s not supposed to stay there after you’ve been authenticated. I’ll recommend using
certbotto issue and renew your Let’s Encrypt without having to manually add files in your acme-challenge folder.If you are not sure how to do that, I’ll recommend checking out this article:
In this tutorial, you will use Certbot to obtain a free SSL certificate for Apache on Ubuntu 18.04 and set up your certificate to renew automatically.
