Connection Refused error

Hello,

I am trying obtain certificate with acme.sh . My boulder service ip address is : http://192.168.6.91:4001/directory. It is local area ip address.

I ran command from 192.168.6.90 machine . this ip adress domain is :robust.mqtttest.com

This command is : ./acme.sh --issue -d robust.mqtttest.com --server http://192.168.6.91:4001/directory -w /var/www/robust.test.com/html/ --debug

Acme output is :

But i am trying to GET "http://robust.mqtttest.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/4w6gfEGTwDTs_aTR-jV4fyeice3p16vmC-Vy3FInFbQ" server return value.

Even i run curl http://robust.mqtttest.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/4w6gfEGTwDTs_aTR-jV4fyeice3p16vmC-Vy3FInFbQ from boulder container, return value.

root@203f5249f790:~# curl http://robust.mqtttest.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/4w6gfEGTwDTs_aTR-jV4fyeice3p16vmC-Vy3FInFbQ

But boulder not connecting this key.

What could be the reason?

Sounds potentially like your Boulder installation might have an incorrect view of DNS. (Note, that Boulder uses a different DNS resolver to that used by curl, even in the same container. This is part of the VA configuration).

Open up the challenge URL on Boulder:

http://192.168.6.91:4001/acme/challenge/synN_nLw0e-G9macx28wXcIo8axWhkFANeOdN6xzmPI/162

It will contain the record of what IP address(es) Boulder is using to connect to your domain. e.g.

"validationRecord": [
  {
    "url": "http://example.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/xxx",
    "hostname": "example.com",
    "port": "80",
    "addressesResolved": [
      "1.2.3.4"
    ],
    "addressUsed": "1.2.3.4"
  }
]

Confirm that it is resolving to the correct host.

My boulder server installed on x.x.x.91 host. if i create new certificate request from x.x.x.90 host, i changed FAKE_DNS value x.x.x.90. If i create new certificate request from x.x.x.94, i changed FAKE_DNS value x.x.x.94.

I dont want to change FAKE_DNS value.

What can i do for it?

You shouldn’t use FAKE_DNS at all.

You need to set real dnsResolvers in test/config/va.json so that your domains get resolved using real DNS.
