    This is driving me around the bend. Ive added a domain ulfrancis [dot] com to my ispconfig however acme.sh/LetsEncrypt is failing to install an SSL certificate.

    ISPConfig latest version installed today on a clean ubuntu 22.04 server.

    Website is accessible externally - tested on my phone through 4g connection.

    When I view the acme.log
    nano /var/log/ispconfig/acme.log

    This jumps out at me:
    [Thu 13 Apr 00:22:23 UTC 2023] ulfrancis.com:Verify error:82.31.222.142: Fetching ulfrancis [dot] com/.well-known/acme-challenge/mSdedtyRg2HezCi98TdYo9eHqrDUas9sP5QnipeyiYc: Timeout during connect (likely firewall problem)

    As a test, I've created a file using:
    touch /usr/local/ispconfig/interface/acme/.well-know/acme-challenge/hello.txt

    And this file loads when visiting
    ulfrancis [dot] com/.well-known/acme-challenge/hello.txt

    Additionally, if I:
    ls /usr/local/ispconfig/interface/acme/.well-known/acme-challenge/
    The result is
    empty.dir hello.txt

    Does anyone have any ideas on how to make this work?

    UPDATE:
    After all that...
    I deleted the port 80 port forwarding rule from my TP-LINK Router and re-added it... and it worked.
    Weird
