Hello. I’ve been trying to generate a Let’s encrypt certificate, on my “Leslieville” droplet (following this guide) but without success.
While running this command,
sudo certbot --nginx -d etiennebaque.com -d www.etiennebaque.com
I got the following error:
Failed authorization procedure. etiennebaque.com (tls-sni-01): urn:acme:error:connection :: The server could not connect to the client to verify the domain :: Error getting validation data, www.
etiennebaque.com (tls-sni-01): urn:acme:error:connection :: The server could not connect to the client to verify the domain :: Error getting validation data
DNS for etiennebaque.com is hosted on Dreamhost. I checked the A record there, it has the correct droplet IP address in it.
I don’t know what to do now, so some help would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks, Etienne
