How are you redirecting things ? I suspect that's the cause of your issue.

Try

./certbot-auto --preferred-challenges http-01

to use the http challenge which will redirect better in your case I suspect.

You missed the initial period off the command

./certbot-auto --preferred-challenges http-01

Note: it starts with a period - this means it triest to run the command (certbot-auto) in the current folder.
