Hi @kashifmit

there are checks of your domain, ~~ two hours old - https://check-your-website.server-daten.de/?q=forty8byforty.com

First, your non-www doesn't have an ip address. That's required if you want to use http validation.

Second, the main things are ok: Port 80 + /.well-known/acme-challenge/random-filename answers with the expected result http status 404 - Not found. No blocking firewall.

There is an Apache. What says

apachectl -S

Please fill out the fields below so we can help you better. Note: you must provide your domain name to get help. Domain names for issued certificates are all made public in Certificate Transparency logs (e.g. https://crt.sh/?q=example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

I ran this command:

It produced this output:

My web server is (include version):

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

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

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

Click "Check". You see the result created 05.01.2020 13:38:37. So it's not your current configuration. There is no automated update, you see saved results.
