Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.
My domain is: clarkmorelsmith.family (clarkmorelsmith.family:1987)
I ran this command: any of the certbot commands
It produced this output: Please deploy a DNS TXT record under the name
_acme-challenge.clarkmorelsmith.family with the following value:
Hhd0bFvxUNfvZzwZQuccs7rUYQv3_TcWiqmMaN5cC3E
Before continuing, verify the record is deployed.
Press Enter to Continue
Waiting for verification…

My web server is (include version): VirtualBox 5 on CentOS 7 on IBM ThinkStation
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): CentOS x86_64 7.5.1804
My hosting provider, if applicable, is: self-hosted
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know): Yes
I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel): Linux specialist using command line - my life is a bash shell
I have added the DNS TXT entries (2 so far) and they both fail, assuming a lookup of DNS timing proliferation perhaps?
Is there a way to bury the (:1987) bit behind this in the configs so your software cert process actually reaches the right server behind the webproxy? This will solve this for sure.
