Timeout during connect

Help
1

My domain is: gosocialmedia.pl

I ran this command: certbot certainly -d gosocialmedia.pl

It produced this output:
During secondary validation: 91.236.87.76: Fetching http://gosocialmedia.pl/.well-known/acme-challenge/<...> Timeout during connect (likely firewall problem)

My web server is (include version): Apache 2.4.53

The operating system my web server runs on is (include version): Rocky Linux 9.2 (Blue Onyx)

My hosting provider, if applicable, is: n/a

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): 2.6.0

I've already checked:

  1. ports 80,443 are open and accessible from internet
  2. Wireshark shows that apache receives GET request for a challenge file from lets encrypt server and replies successfully with its content
  3. I can access other test files from directory .well-known/acme-challenge using browser

What is the issue????
