Dry run fails when I try it one an aws hosted node

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is: nuudle.getone.io

I ran this command:sudo certbot renew --webroot --cert-name nuudle.getone.io --webroot-path /var/www/nuudle --dry-run

It produced this output: Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log

    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.

My web server is (include version): Apache/2.4.18

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: AWS

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): Yes

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you’re using Certbot): certbot 1.3.0

Note: I have opened necessary ports via console before issuing this command.

Hi @karun

it's not possible to check your file - timeout.

Your AWS has a firewall you have to open.

See your error:

Timeout during connect (likely firewall problem)

Hi @JuergenAuer
I am curious. Is this a new Firewall enforcement by AWS now? I never had this issue before. I will check.
Thanks,

Hi @JuergenAuer,
Everything is good. I am able to renew it now. I did not set any AWS Firewall stuff.
Thanks,
