Unable to obtain ACME certificate for domains \"mydomain.com,www.mydomain.com\"

[robertpro]

Hello, first of all thank you for this project, I've learned a lot just by reading the code, dependencies and structure, I tried to join discord but the link seems to be broken.

I am starting a project with docker, for some reason traefik can't get letsencrypt certificate, this is the error:

traefik_1       | time="2022-01-29T03:23:51Z" level=error msg="Unable to obtain ACME certificate for domains \"mydomain.com,www.mydomain.com\": unable to generate a certificate for the domains [mydomain.com www.mydomain.com]: error: one or more domains had a problem:\n[mydomain.com] acme: error: 403 :: urn:ietf:params:acme:error:unauthorized :: Invalid response from http://mydomain.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/XsBT222XeYdWT04Gdekbvla26NgRLbDh1890UQ_QHuM [2607:f1c0:100f:f000::290]: 204, url: \n[www.mydomain.com] acme: error: 403 :: urn:ietf:params:acme:error:unauthorized :: Invalid response from http://www.mydomain.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/AcnM8qIjv-RFpBKxDfkXzUfuSG2fRk-rjhrisHUlcTE [2607:f1c0:100f:f000::290]: 204, url: \n" providerName=letsencrypt.acme routerName=web-secure-router@file rule="Host(`mydomain.com`) || Host(`www.mydomain.com`)"

I also tried let's encrypt staging endpoint, the error is the same: caServer: https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory

I can't find any information about the error, I already tried setting the non-tls config here which it links here

Paste from SO answer:

Are your AAAA records correct?

Seems Let's Encrypt is getting a 204 back on the challenge files. The usual error is having AAAA records going to different servers than A records and traefik only serving challenge files on the A record servers.

@robertpro did you ever solve this? I'm running into a similar issue.
