Rate limit reached

My domain is: lurboa.com

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes)

I am using another application that request for certs with LetEncrypt, I was continuely running the command to request the certs but didn’t realize that I had a firewall issue, now that I fixed that issue, and still do not have a certificat, I am get a rate limit error. Can someone tell me how long I have to wait before I can request new one? I don’t even have a cert yet.
The error is:
acme: Error 429 - urn:acme:error:rateLimited - Error creating new authz :: too many failed authorizations recently: see https://letsencrypt.org/docs/rate-limits/

Hi @nfarmer

please read the link.

There is a Failed Validation limit of 5 failures per account, per hostname, per hour.

Can you tell me when the last failure was so I can determine the wait time?

PS: Your configuration is wrong, therre is a blocking firewall ( https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=lurboa.com ):

Fix that, then recheck your domain.

Port 80 / http + /.well-known/acme-challenge/random-filename should answer with a http status 404 - Not Found.
