My web server is (include version):

It depends on how your DNS is set up. See the following Plesk article:

You tried to use DNS validation. To achieve DNS validation you need to create a very specific TXT record in your DNS with a certain value, how you know what that value is depend on what tool you use to get the certificate. Currently looking up _acme-challenge.Stealth7.eu returns a CNAME record to web11731.cweb06.gamingcontrol.de but if you were really using DNS validation that would return a TXT record with a value.

Try using http validation instead?
