NEWBIE : No access to /etc/letsencrypt/live/my-domain.com

My domain is: www.breuhschis.com hosted on Heroku

I ran this command: I used Certbot and ran:

sudo certbot certonly --manual

I enabled the verification on Heroku and got a success message

It produced this output:

Generating key (2048 bits): /etc/letsencrypt/keys/0002_key-certbot.pem
Creating CSR: /etc/letsencrypt/csr/0002_csr-certbot.pem

My problem
Only the /etc/letsencrypt/csr/0002_csr-certbot.pem exists

There is nothing in /etc/letsencrypt/keys/0002_key-certbot.pem (empty)
Nothing in /etc/letsencrypt/live/www.breuhschis.com/ where I am supposed to get the fullchain.pem, the cert.pem, the privkey.pem and the chain.pem files…

When I run: cd /etc/letsencrypt/live
I get: cd: permission denied: /etc/letsencrypt/live

When I look at the folder live directly (sublime for example), it is empty.

I tried 3 times (hence the 0002) by renewing it.

So, I basically only get the certificate (in /etc/letsencrypt/csr/0002_csr-certbot.pem), below :

How is that? What am I doing wrong? I need a key to add the certificate to Heroku …

My operating system is (include version): Mac OS Sierra 10.12

My web server is (include version): I guess Cowboy (heroku)

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: Heroku

I only use the CLI

After trying sudo etc/letsencrypt/live/www.breuhschis.com I can see the desired files.

Now, how can I open them / use them for heroku with heroku certs: add CERT KEY ?!
I get: EACCES: EACCES: permission denied, open ‘/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.breuhschis.com/cert.pem’

I have solved this by running : sudo heroku certs:add /etc/letsencrypt/live/www.breuhschis.com/fullchain.pem /etc/letsencrypt/live/www.breuhschis.com/privkey.pem
