To fix these errors, please make sure that your domain name was
entered correctly and the DNS A record(s) for that domain

I have checked the folder permisions and these are:
drwxr-xr-x 6 ghost ghost 4096 May 11 21:09 .
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 May 9 23:58 ..

But there the acme-challenge folder is missing.
I have already tried to change the permissions to 755 or assign the group user to www-data:www-data and still nothing works.
