I'm trying to install a manually created SSL certificate from Lets Encrypt for a website that I host on Infinity Free (https://infinityfree.net/). I installed the Certbot client (old one) which generates the certificate on my Ubuntu 16.04 laptop by running ”sudo apt install letsencrypt” in Terminal as is instructed here Certbot. The client seems to be working fine.
I also installed the new Cerbot client with wget https://dl.eff.org/certbot-auto as described here: Certbot. I ran ./certbot-auto certonly --manual -d world-wide-web.xyz. Same problem.
When I visit the URL in my browser I can see the validation file but ?i=1 gets added to the URL.
The only reason I can think of that the authorization fails is that the first time you connect with my website ?i=1 gets added to the URL:
http://world-wide-web.xyz/.well-known/acme-challenge/hscnwKEQecGwAayBs3XGmhfPFvRoLZweFpjH5xslWds?i=1
Domain: http://world-wide-web.xyz
Command line:
Old client:
sudo letsencrypt certonly --manual -d world-wide-web.xyz
Output:
Domain: world-wide-web.xyz
Type: unauthorized
Detail: Invalid response from http://world-wide-web.xyz/.well-known

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

I checked for urn:acme:error: in the Lets Encrypt log file and only found urn:acme:error:unauthorized
I checked the Lets Encrypt logs and the IP adress used is the same as I find with https://mxtoolbox.com.
