Sophos UTM cert fails

My domain is: clefus.homeip.net

I ran this command: New Cert and Retry. See below for log but here is a snippet:
2024:03:26-19:38:03 letsencrypt[27901]: I Renew certificate: running command: /var/storage/chroot-reverseproxy/usr/dehydrated/bin/dehydrated -x -f /var/storage/chroot-

It produced this output:
This is a partial output - trying not to post security / token etc info.

My web server is (include version): Sophos UTM 9.718-5

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): See above.

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don't know): Yes - prefer not to for this...but can.

I have searched google, this forum, Sophos' forum and found both similar and different instances of this issue. I have tried creating an exception in web filtering, disabling (temporarily) country blocking, and much more....so far no luck in establishing the cert. I have an identical setup, with a similar dyn.dns domain at another location - have reviewed settings/compared and they seem to be the same. It was able to grab a certificate. I have also tried disabling the Let's Encrypt service and re-enabling. The only difference between the successful config and this one is which physical interface - although all the rules/config take this into account - which physical interface should not matter. It is acting as the WAN port just like the other physical port on the other device. I have also checked the CA's on the device and do not believe that is the issue.

Trying to get this cert on the actual sophos device, not a server behind it.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hello @clefus, welcome to the Let's Encrypt community. :slightly_smiling_face:

You do not want the server responding this way; "HTTP/1.1 501 Not Implemented". :frowning:

$ curl -Ii http://clefus.homeip.net/.well-known/acme-challenge/sometestfile

And using the online tool Let's Debug yields these results https://letsdebug.net/clefus.homeip.net/1848642

I did not realize that my modem/ONT was intercepting. Your reply helped me solve the issue and I am now good to go!

Thanks again!
