Webroot is simply the base directory your web server is serving it’s files from. For instance, if you wanted to put an index.html page on your web server so that when you go to www.yourdomain.com it would load, you put that in your webroot directory. Create a directory in your webroot for .well-known, then inside of .well-known that you just created, make one called acme-challenge, then put your challenge files in there.
So, if you put your website files in, for example, /var/www, you would need to put the challenge file in /var/www/.well-known/acme-challenge

Hi Schoen,
I got only « failed» message!
I created the path in …default: well-known/acme-challenge and copied attached file(getting from «Certificate Automation» service) into this path!
I attempt to verificate it several times! But each time have « failed» record.
At last I used DNS verification in «SSL for free…» service which was successfull! So for three month the problem had been solved for me!
Let’s change the title of this thread to “Help find webroot on macOS server” and see if someone with relevant experience can help you figure out where your web root is!
