Http chllenge 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: dufoo.com.mx

I ran this command: certbot --nginx

It produced this output:
Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log
Plugins selected: Authenticator nginx, Installer nginx

Which names would you like to activate HTTPS for?


1: dufoo.com.mx
2: www.dufoo.com.mx

Hi,

Could you please retry the operation, there might just be a glich in the system.

update: Different system yielded different result:
unboundtest and few other systems showed all clear, but Let’s Debug showed similar issue.
https://letsdebug.net/dufoo.com.mx/64791
https://unboundtest.com/m/A/dufoo.com.mx/HPDWRFW6

@_az What’s the reason for the “A record timeout”?
the DNSSEC response is signed too…

Thank you

Hi @rdufoo

looks like your name servers are a problem.

Different checks, different answers.

https://unboundtest.com/m/A/www.dufoo.com.mx/XFTZNLLX

without a result (a timeout). A few minutes earlier, a lot of "lame" results.

The non-www works - https://unboundtest.com/m/A/dufoo.com.mx/ZP6TVURI - but the www is terrible.

Ah, now the non-www has lame results:

query response was DNSSEC LAME

Hi,

I changed DNS provider to Cloudfare and got my certificates.

Thanks
