Http-01 challenge for my site

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: cosmos.metglobal.tech

I ran this command: sudo certbot certonly --webroot -w /etc/nginx/sites-enabled -d cosmos.metglobal.tech

It produced this output: ERROR: ld.so: object '/lib/snoopy.so' from /etc/ld.so.preload cannot be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.

Hi @Emre2

is this

really your webroot? That's a folder with your config files, but normally not your webroot.

Check your config file of that domain to find your webroot.

Looks like you have something like a regional firewall.

The main servers from Letsencrypt are able to check your domain.

The secondary can't.

Why?
