The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version

I already tried to set an html file at my_server/.well-known/acme-challenge/index.html
And I can access to this file
I don’t know why certbot can’t find the challenge file, am I supposed to create it myself ? Or is it certbot that create the challenge file ?
