TImeout during connect

Hi All, I’m getting a timeout error altough it seems my nginx repsonds to outside requests

My domain is:

leibowitz.ddns.net

I ran this command:

sudo acme-nginx -d leibowitz.ddns.net --debug

It produced this output:

2020-04-30 10:14:04,929 - ERROR - leibowitz.ddns.net challenge did not pass: {u’status’: u’invalid’, u’cu’invalid’, u’validationRecord’: [{u’url’: u’http://leibowitz.ddns.net/.well-known/acme-challenge/TXXLAnKliBnjN9eAys’, u’hostname’: u’leibowitz.ddns.net’, u’addressUsed’: u’109.186.69.244’, u’port’: u’80’, u’9.186.69.244’]}], u’url’: u’https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/acme/chall-v3/4269570543/iMuwrQ’, u’tokg2YP-G4SdmUv5KliBnjN9eAys’, u’error’: {u’status’: 400, u’type’: u’urn:ietf:params:acme:error:connection’ttp://leibowitz.ddns.net/.well-known/acme-challenge/TXXLAndy_zy2a2O_1pg2YP-G4SdmUv5KliBnjN9eAys: Timeoutirewall problem)’}, u’type’: u’http-01’}], u’identifier’: {u’type’: u’dns’, u’value’: u’leibowitz.ddns.n05-07T07:13:09Z’}

My web server is (include version):

nginx 1.4.6

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

Ubuntu 14.04

My hosting provider, if applicable, is:

Self hosted

I can login to a root shell on my machine (yes or no, or I don’t know):

Yes

I’m using a control panel to manage my site (no, or provide the name and version of the control panel):

No

The version of my client is (e.g. output of certbot --version or certbot-auto --version if you’re using Certbot):

latest acme-nginx

Thanks!

Hi @adilei

if you want to create a certificate via http validation, a working port 80 is required.

Your port 80 doesn't answer. Check your firewall and router setup.

Thanks @JuergenAuer. However port 80 actually does respond for me

It doesn't answer. See your online check, ~~3 hours old - https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=leibowitz.ddns.net

Timeouts checking http.

You use your internal connection.

I can see it is failing the check, however I am getting a response even from my smartphone on the mobile network, so router/firewall seems fine. Any chance this is ISP related?

If it's your WiFi, that's the same.

Online checks (like "check your website" or Letsencrypt) must be able to see your port 80 answer.

It’s not my Wifi - it’s the cellular network. Hence my confusion.

Thanks,
Adi
