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:esda.hkmlcps.edu.hk
I ran this command:certbot certonly --webroot
It produced this output:An unexpected error occurred:
Error creating new order :: too many failed authorizations recently: see Failed Validation Limit - Let's Encrypt
Ask for help or search for solutions at https://community.letsencrypt.org. See the logfile C:\Certbot\log\letsencrypt.log or re-run Certbot with -v for more details.
My web server is (include version): Apache Tomcat
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know):
I'm using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):
The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you're using Certbot):
Hint: The Certificate Authority failed to download the temporary challenge files created by Certbot. Ensure that the listed domains serve their content from the provided --webroot-path/-w and that files created there can be downloaded from the internet.
No issues were found with esda.hkmlcps.edu.hk. If you are having problems with creating an SSL certificate, please visit the Let's Encrypt Community forums and post a question there.
esda.hkmlcps.edu.hk has an A (IPv4) record (203.188.220.98) but a request to this address over port 80 did not succeed. Your web server must have at least one working IPv4 or IPv6 address.
A test authorization for esda.hkmlcps.edu.hk to the Let's Encrypt staging service has revealed issues that may prevent any certificate for this domain being issued.
Your firewall must allow the HTTP [TCP port 80] connection requests.
Then you could switch to using DNS-01 authentication.
Note: That is not as easy to automate as HTTP-01 authentication.
But you could do it manually [if you need a cert right away].

are you accessing it from a trusted IP / trusted network
are you using a VPN
OR
are you using a random public Internet IP?
There are many ways to access it.
ACME requires that the Internet reach your client via HTTP.
But LE can't reach it.
Let's Debug can't reach it.
And I can't reach it either:
