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.

Please provide the actual, literal steps you did instead of simply refering to an entire different thread. Please provide Apache configuration files et cetera.
Also, where did you get the recommendation to use pip install letsencrypt? That's not the recommended method of installing Certbot on FreeBSD. The fact the term "letsencrypt" for Certbot is like, ANCIENT and there is official documentation at Certbot Instructions | Certbot.
That's going to be very important to determine, and the only way to know for sure would be to check your Apache config files. I'd guess, given that this is FreeBSD, it would be something like /usr/local/www/html unless you've configured it to use something different. I don't know where your path of /usr/home/sixpiece/python/emploiquebec/ comes from.
well we are talking about django so I presume the root is where the manage.py files are? this is the root that I have set with apache... it works you can view the website at http://emplois.kagan.ch
I tried making some of the commands universal instead of within the Virtual Host path. I tried different paths outside of the root . I installed the pip letsencrypt and followed the steps until step 5. django-letsencrypt · PyPI
Installation & Configuration
pip install django-letsencrypt
Add letsencrypt to your INSTALLED_APPS
INSTALLED_APPS = [ ... , 'letsencrypt', ... , ]
Include the letsencrypt in your project's urls.py, or where applicable (usually your root urls.py).

/usr/home/sixpiece/python/emploiquebec/splashpage/ is obviously not your domain name; I don't know why you keep trying with that.
You're getting 404 errors on the challenge. That means, assuming your DNS records are pointing to the correct IP address (108.61.177.246), that you're using the wrong webroot path. You need to figure out what the correct path is, or post your virtual host config file and perhaps one of us can figure it out.
right I never thought it was splashpage but a lot of my attempts are things that I don't think will work but I am trying them in an ad hoc manner to see if they will. The reason for that attempt was because of your earlier reply here's what I see here ... Bonjour vous etes a l'index which you make a good point it's not the index.html anyways... even that produces it it's simply an http response from the view... in the splashpage app of the Emploiquebec app...
having said all that the path is
/usr/home/sixpiece/python/emploiquebec/ the one that you suggest that you don't know where it comes from ...
emplois.kagan.ch/.well-known/acme-challenge/test there's something here also maybe it is similar to the nodejs setup I have??? i created this in the administration panel the application adds this it's a bit confusing but I don't know what to do or think just yet...
