I found problem while installing certificate in Apache

Help
1

I run this command: sudo certbot --apache

It produced this output:

Select the appropriate numbers separated by commas and/or spaces, or leave input
blank to select all options shown (Enter 'c' to cancel): 1
Requesting a certificate for platform.EXAMPLE.com

Certbot failed to authenticate some domains (authenticator: apache). The Certificate Authority reported these problems:
Domain: platform.EXAMPLE.com
Type: unauthorized
Detail: 2a02:4780:1e:b0c5:b9b:15a5:3510:369c: Invalid response from http://platform.EXAMPLE.com/ .well-known/acme-challenge/2FU35paxLaZIrPa2aWjqDeCX3mJ8l54XvosXA_7LQwI: 404

Hint: The Certificate Authority failed to verify the temporary Apache configuration changes made by Certbot. Ensure that the listed domains point to this Apache server and that it is accessible from the internet.

Some challenges have failed.
Ask for help or search for solutions at https://community.letsencrypt.org. See the logfile /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log or re-run Certbot with -v for more details.

My web server is (include version): Apache2

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Ubuntu 22.04

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: hostinger VPS

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you're using Certbot): 1.21.0

When I run "certbot certificates" it shows "No certificates found."

When I run " sudo apachectl -t -D DUMP_VHOSTS" It shows "VirtualHost configuration:
*:80 platform.EXAMPLE.com (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/platform.conf:1)"

This is the error log
" tail -n 30 /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log"

Hi @prince00, and welcome to the LE community forum :slight_smile:

Without an actual domain name, there is little we can do.

Does the domain work via IPv6?

Please follow the recommended installation instructions.
Use snap - not apt
See: Certbot (eff.org)

The tail was too short.
The relevant error message was further up.

You only need to say that once.
[both ways are fine - pick one]

You are using HTTP on Port 443

>curl -k -6  http://\[2a02:4780:1e:b0c5:b9b:15a5:3510:369c\]:443
<html>
<head><title>400 The plain HTTP request was sent to HTTPS port</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>400 Bad Request</h1></center>
<center>The plain HTTP r`Preformatted text`eq`Preformatted text`uest was sent to HTTPS port</center>
<hr><center>hcdn</center>
</body>
</html>

And HTTP on Port 80 has an issue

>curl -k -6 http://\[2a02:4780:1e:b0c5:b9b:15a5:3510:369c\]:80
curl: (56) Recv failure: Connection reset by peer

Not really, you're using http:// in the URL and the webserver is actually complaining about that fact. Not the other way around as you're suggesting. That said, HTTPS is giving a non-specific TLS error, so no idea why that's happening.

OK; but using HTTPS on Port 443 yields this:

>curl -k -6  https://\[2a02:4780:1e:b0c5:b9b:15a5:3510:369c\]:443
curl: (35) OpenSSL/1.1.1t: error:14094438:SSL routines:ssl3_read_bytes:tlsv1 alert internal error

Then your DNS is probably not configured correctly.
