The challenge is deleted after an attempt, therefore you can’t find it any longer after certbot has quit.

Question: is the webroot correct? For example, if you place a test file in it, like /var/www/vhosts/mysite.com/testfile, can you access it through http://mysite.com/testfile?

Thanks for reply!!,
If I insert a file test in the path that you indicated i can not access…only if I insert the file in the path
/var/www/vhosts/mysite.com/httpdocs
I can access on file from the path mysite.com/testfile

You've answered your problem right here :wink: Change the webroot path accordingly and it should work.
