Installation error on nginx

My domain is: www.fesfans.com

I ran this command: sudo certbot --nginx

It produced this output:
Saving debug log to /var/log/letsencrypt/letsencrypt.log
Error while running nginx -c /etc/nginx/nginx.conf -t.

nginx: [emerg] dlopen() "/opt/nginx/modules/ngx_http_geoip_module.so" failed (/opt/nginx/modules/ngx_http_geoip_module.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) in /etc/nginx/modules-enabled/50-mod-http-geoip.conf:1

The nginx plugin is not working; there may be problems with your existing configuration.
The error was: MisconfigurationError('Error while running nginx -c /etc/nginx/nginx.conf -t.\n\nnginx: [emerg] dlopen() "/opt/nginx/modules/ngx_http_geoip_module.so" failed (/opt/nginx/modules/ngx_http_geoip_module.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory) in /etc/nginx/modules-enabled/50-mod-http-geoip.conf:1\nnginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed\n',)

My web server is (include version): Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.0-1065-aws x86_64)

Please show outputs of:
nginx -t
sudo netstat -pant | grep -i listen

I’m guessing there is some issue with your Phusion…
You might try using --webroot instead of --niginx
