Hello, I tried to set up SSL for my subdomain in AWS EC2 where my website hosted in Hostinger. I am new at configuring the server and I'm facing some issues using Let's Encrypt.
I was able to succesfully set up the SSL for another subdomain before, but the domain in this one was in GoDaddy.
My domain is: soventix.com.do
My Subdomain: app.soventix.com.do
I ran this command: sudo certbot --nginx -d app.soventix.com.do
It produced this output:
