Timeout during connect

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????

Hi Bruce!

thanks for warm welcome! :slightly_smiling_face:

This is strange, I've used browser connected to external mobile phone network and it works...it may be cached? I will double check it...

Best regards,

Or there is geoblocking going on.

Thank you all for your help! It turned out it was my firewall configuration issue, now it works perfectly! Issue closed!
