Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/acme-dns/acme-dns/issues/273

I have installed acme-dns on one of our servers. I have port 53, 443, and 80 open, however, I get the following:

INFO[0012] [INFO] [auth.ipcaccess.net] acme: Could not find solver for: tls-alpn-01
INFO[0012] [INFO] [auth.ipcaccess.net] acme: Could not find solver for: http-01

How do I get a solver for HTTP-01 working?

Furthermore, I attempted using DNS-01 (instead of HTTP-01 though HTTP-01 is preferable) and get the following:

acme: error: 403 :: urn:ietf:params:acme:error:unauthorized :: Incorrect TXT record

Where do I find the generated TXT record for us to use?

I have tried the following config:

listen = "0.0.0.0:53" and listen = "<server IP>:53"
tls = "letsencrypt" and tls = "letsencryptstaging"

config.txt
Note: had to be .txt as cannot upload .cfg

I do apologize if the issue is trivial to solve and for the potential lack of understanding though any help would be highly appreciated.

Seems like I setup the DNS wrong, if you run into this issue, double check your DNS settings. I had something like the following: auth.example.com.example.com NS record pointing to auth.example.com.
