I am trying to retrieve an SSL Cert using Certbot from an Unbuntu 22 instance on AWS and it keeps getting the following error:

Simulating a certificate request for studiojb-demo.com and *.studiojb-demo.com
Encountered exception during recovery: socket.timeout: timed out
An unexpected error occurred:
socket.timeout: timed out

Things to note:

  1. I have another instance running on the same AWS subnet which runs fine.
  2. I have posted on community.letsencrypt.org and a Certbot engineer informs me it's a network issue to google. Here: https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/encountered-exception-during-recovery-socket-timeout-timed-out/196512/8

My Question[s]:

Does Google DNS block requests from AWS IPAddress spaces? Possible previous mal attempts?

How would I troubleshoot this?

Thank you,

GES
