My domain is:
29th.xyz
I ran this command:
certbot certonly --dns-digitalocean \
--dns-digitalocean-credentials ~/.secrets/certbot/digitalocean.ini \
--email <hidden> \
-d 29th.xyz -d "*.29th.xyz" \
--dns-digitalocean-propagation-seconds 240
It produced this output:
Renewing an existing certificate

IMPORTANT NOTES:
- The following errors were reported by the server:
Domain: 29th.xyz
Type: unauthorized
Detail: Incorrect TXT record
"frit2byeoSOYfGMi-danaBKZjU3qOzkUgTyrD-lx6OE" found at
_acme-challenge.29th.xyz
To fix these errors, please make sure that your domain name was
entered correctly and the DNS A/AAAA record(s) for that domain
contain(s) the right IP address.
My web server is (include version):
Technically it's nginx, but it's running in a docker container, so there is no nginx binary on the host machine. I'm under the impression that doesn't matter since I'm using the DNS challenge, so no web server should be required to get the certs, from what I understand.
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
Digital Ocean
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):
No
The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you're using Certbot):
1.9.0
Other details:
I also tried with explicitly listing all the necessary hostnames instead of a wildcard:
-d 29th.xyz -d www.29th.xyz -d api.29th.xyz
This gave the same error, but about one of the hostnames (none succeded).
Both commands work with the --staging flag.
I updated the nameservers of the domain to digitalocean a couple hours ago, and nslookup websites are showing the new nameserver.
Any idea how else I can diagnose what's wrong?
