Good evening hope everyone is doing good. I am working on a school project and I keep bumping into this error when im running the last step before I get to see my actual website. If this help im making an image board for my class. I was inspired by this, Vichan it has all the code. I appreciate everyone for trying to help.
My domain is: www.chan.fig.org
I ran this command: certbot --nginx -d chan.fig.org
It produced this output: Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log
Requesting a certificate for chan.fig.org
Certbot failed to authenticate some domains (authenticator: nginx). The Certificate Authority reported these problems:
Domain: chan.fig.org
Type: dns
Detail: DNS problem: NXDOMAIN looking up A for chan.fig.org - check that a DNS record exists for this domain; DNS problem: NXDOMAIN looking up AAAA for chan.fig.org - check that a DNS record exists for this domain
Hint: The Certificate Authority failed to verify the temporary nginx configuration changes made by Certbot. Ensure the listed domains point to this nginx server and that it is accessible from the internet.
Some challenges have failed.
Ask for help or search for solutions at https://community.letsencrypt.org. See the logfile /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log or re-run Certbot with -v for more details.
