My domain is: openvpn.evansonline.com.cn

I ran this command: sudo certbot certonly -v --dry-run --standalone --preferred-challenges http -d openvpn.evansonline.com.cn

It produced this output:

Hello @glukye :slight_smile:

I suggest testing your domain name with Open Port Check Tool - Test Port Forwarding on Your Router to verify Port 80 is Open. Might want --debug-challenges to assist User Guide — Certbot 2.5.0 documentation

I don't see any significant open ports either.

PORT    STATE    SERVICE
22/tcp  filtered ssh
80/tcp  filtered http
443/tcp filtered https
