My domain is: hr.dyanamicflowsystems.com

I ran this command:
~$ sudo certbot --apache -d hr.dynamicflowsystems.com

It produced this output:****

IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • The following errors were reported by the server:

    Domain: hr.dynamicflowsystems.com
    Type: connection
    Detail: Fetching
    http://hr.dynamicflowsystems.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/jJVVJJn7oSsqEqh6TzKLF1euCwUPDuZmhjb9cKC7U20:
    Timeout during connect (likely firewall problem)

    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. Additionally, please check that
    your computer has a publicly routable IP address and that no
    firewalls are preventing the server from communicating with the
    client. If you’re using the webroot plugin, you should also verify
    that you are serving files from the webroot path you provided.

I can confirm:
http://hr.dynamicflowsystems.com
is NOT accessible from the Internet.
HTTP access is the default requirement for DV cert authentication.
If HTTP is NOT available, you might try DNS authentication (if your DNS provider is supported by one of the various ACME clients).
