Certbot failed to authenticate some domains (authenticator: nginx). The Certificate Authority reported these problems:
Domain: example.com
Type: dns
Detail: DNS problem: NXDOMAIN looking up A for example.com - check that a DNS record exists for this domain; DNS problem: NXDOMAIN looking up AAAA for example.com - check that a DNS record exists for this domain
Domain: example2.com
Type: dns
Detail: DNS problem: NXDOMAIN looking up A for example2.com - check that a DNS record exists for this domain; DNS problem: NXDOMAIN looking up AAAA for example2.com - check that a DNS record exists for this domain
Domain: example3.com

Hint: The Certificate Authority failed to verify the temporary nginx configuration changes made by Certbot. Ensure the listed domains point to this nginx server and that it is accessible from the internet.
