Symptoms

PLESK_ERROR: An SSL / TLS certificate could not be issued for example.com.
Details An SSL / TLS Let's Encrypt certificate could not be requested for example.com.
Go to http://example.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/pt7YtTqj1HCGz2yLqRoRC-LN9SbtSp5v4cJpe0YXkY and check if the authorization token is available.

Check that the IP addresses listed in the domain's DNS zone match the IP addresses where the domain is hosted.
