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: -d corporated9-dev4.johnsonoutdoors.com \

-d cannond9-dev4.johnsonoutdoors.com \

-d eurekad9-dev4.johnsonoutdoors.com \

-d humminbirdd9-dev4.johnsonoutdoors.com \

-d jetboild9-dev4.johnsonoutdoors.com \

-d minnkotamotorsd9-dev4.johnsonoutdoors.com \

-d oldtowncanoed9-dev4.johnsonoutdoors.com \

-d scubaprod9-dev4.johnsonoutdoors.com

I ran this command: sudo certbot certonly --agree-tos --manual -m kevin.muya@vml.com

It produced this output: Certbot failed to authenticate some domains (authenticator: manual). The Certificate Authority reported these problems:

Hint: The Certificate Authority failed to verify the manually created challenge files. Ensure that you created these in the correct location.

My web server is (include version):

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):

Your post is missing a lot of information--why you're using manual would be one of the big pieces. But certbot told you to make specific challenge files with specific contents available for each of your subdomains at a specific URL. Based on the 404 errors the Let's Encrypt validation servers received, you failed to do that. You need to do that in order to validate control over each of those FQDNs.
