Trying to create SSL certificate and keep getting internal error

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. crt.sh | example.com), so withholding your domain name here does not increase secrecy, but only makes it harder for us to provide help.

My domain is:
id3m0n1c.us
I ran this command:
I've run all sorts of things
It produced this output:
still just keep getting 'some challenges failed'
My web server is (include version):
I'm not sure what this means...
The operating system my web server runs on is (include version):
unraid
My hosting provider, if applicable, is:
crafty 4/ cloudflare
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): I'm not sure as it's also not creating a log file that I can find.

as I enter all of my information on the NGINX PROXY MANAGER in the SSL Certificate fields, it acs like it is going to create one, then it gives internal error.

If NPM gives an internal error that is better directed at the NPM support forum.

What's wrong with the current Cloudflare certificate your site is using already?

Maybe a Cloudflare Origin CA cert is more applicable in your situation.

That said, LetsDebug does have some things to say about your website: Let's Debug.

I am trying to reverse proxy with NGINX to Cloudflare so I can be better protected. I don't want to just leave it open through DNS only

alright, I'll head over there. thanks!

To Cloudflare? Cloudflare itself is already a reverse proxy.

Also, the statement of the Origin CA still stands: why not use that?

so for whatever reason, when I proxy with Cloudflare (orange cloud), my MC server isn't accessible. Others are only able to access it if I choose the gray cloud. I haven't looked into the Origin CA Cert yet. I will definitely do that.

That is to be expected. Cloudflare only proxies HTTPS and HTTP by default and only on specific ports.

While it is possible to proxy Minecraft on certain Cloudflare Spectrum plans, it can quickly become expensive. Discussion about that is better suited to the Cloudflare Community.
