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. crt.sh | 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:
I ran this command:
sudo certbot --apache
It produced this output: > Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log

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 have tried searching for help, but I just can't seem to figure out why I'm receiving the errors I'm receiving when attempting to generate an SSL Certificates for my www & non-www site. I'm hosting the web server myself, but I use Google Domains to manage my synthetic records with Dynamic DNS.
I did try creating the file with no extension, 123456789, and am able to access each file with this:
http://iwasframed.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/123456789
http://www.iwasframed.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/123456789
I appreciate any help you can provide me. I'm very new to this, so thank you in advance.
