Error: Could not issue a Let's Encrypt SSL/TLS certificate for dovevo.com. Authorization for the domain failed

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: dovevo.com

I ran this command:

It produced this output:
Invalid response from https://acme-v01.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/authz/oLLOzIIwGCLbLzQTYkZTU2sWExymNTwdzFLFDKGyIyQ.
Details:
Type: urn:acme:error:connection
Status: 400
Detail: dns :: DNS problem: SERVFAIL looking up A for dovevo.com

My web server is (include version):

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu 16.04

My hosting provider, if applicable, is:

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): Plesk Onyx 17.8.11

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

https://letsdebug.net/dovevo.com/29784

i have put the NS1+NS2 to
ns1.dovevo.com
ns1.dovevo.com
with the IP of my server of Plesk and I have created all DNS correctly.

i had this problem when I migrate to a new server, I was using DNSSEC in Plesk panel.

You gotta setup glue records for ns1.dovevo.com and ns2.dovevo.com at your registrar.

can you please provide me of a way to do it?
thanks

Ask your domain registrar how to do it. I think your registrar is http://assistenza.aruba.it , but I’m not sure.

Hi @xpalestinex

now you have changed something, so your ip address is visible:

Host T IP-Address is auth. ∑ Queries ∑ Timeout
dovevo.com A 82.165.98.97 yes 2 0
AAAA yes
www.dovevo.com C dovevo.com yes 1 0
A 82.165.98.97 yes

But your nameserver doesn’t allow TCP-connections:

X Fatal error: Nameserver doesn’t support TCP connection: ns1.dovevo.com / 82.165.98.97: Timeout
X Fatal error: Nameserver doesn’t support TCP connection: ns2.dovevo.com / 82.165.98.97: Timeout

That may be the next problem creating a certificate.

I think my host server has updated the DNS configs again and it is working now.

A nameserver uses port 53 - UDP and TCP.
