Error creating new order :: too many failed authorizations recently

I was trying to renew the domain certificate but the following error came out:

Certbot failed to authenticate some domains (authenticator: apache). The Certifi cate Authority reported these problems:
Domain: www.alarmarltda.com
Type: connection
Detail: 201.184.143.219: Fetching http://www.alarmarltda.com/.well-known/acme- challenge/KWJjNUUjmDMh7NQB7GyzgFMQrrQO9SXE_rqygiT7cqU: Error getting validation data

Hint: The Certificate Authority failed to verify the temporary Apache configurat ion changes made by Certbot. Ensure that the listed domains point to this Apache server and that it is accessible from the internet.

Some challenges have failed.
Ask for help or search for solutions at https://community.letsencrypt.org. See t he logfile /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log or re-run Certbot with -v for mo re details.

Then I tried again and I get the following:Error creating new order :: too many failed authorizations recently: see https:/ /letsencrypt.org/docs/failed-validation-limit/
Ask for help or search for solutions at https://community.letsencrypt.org. See t he logfile /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log or re-run Certbot with -v for mo re details.

My domain is: www.alarmarltda.com

I ran this command:certbot

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know):yes

Hello @bcastrillon18, welcome to the Let's Encrypt community. :slightly_smiling_face:

Best Practice - Keep Port 80 Open

The HTTP-01 challenge of the Challenge Types - Let's Encrypt requires access to Port 80.

Using the online tool https://letsdebug.net/ yields these results https://letsdebug.net/www.alarmarltda.com/1484807

And for limits see:

Testing and debugging are best done using the Staging Environment.

To assist with debugging there is a great place to start is Let's Debug.
