Authentication problem on certificate creation

Help

My domain is: shuttlefinder.app

I ran this command: sudo certbot --nginx -d shuttlefinder.app -d *.shuttlefinder.app

It produced this output:

Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log

Plugins selected: Authenticator nginx, Installer nginx

Starting new HTTPS connection (1): acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org

Obtaining a new certificate

Performing the following challenges:

Client with the currently selected authenticator does not support any combination of challenges that will satisfy the CA. You may need to use an authenticator plugin that can do challenges over DNS.

I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): no

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you’re using Certbot): certbot 0.31.0

Hi @matthiasunt

if you want to create a wildcard certificate, you have to use dns-01 validation.

So check, if you can use --dns-digitalocean

https://certbot.eff.org/docs/using.html

as plugin.

If not, you have to use --manual.
