Originally created by @ghost on GitHub (Jan 19, 2016).

The config example for nginx in the README.md doesn't work for me

location /.well-known/acme-challenge {
  alias /var/www/letsencrypt;
}

I just get 403 forbidden errors when i try to access one of the challenge files via a browser and also letsencrypt.sh can't access the challenge files.

But the following config for nginx works for me:

location ^~ /.well-known/acme-challenge {
  alias /var/www/letsencrypt;
}

Not sure if that should be changed or if there could be an other issue preventing the example config for nginx work correctly in my setup.

I'm personally using location /.well-known/acme-challenge { alias /var/www/letsencrypt; }, and I don't have any problems with that. Seems to be a problem with your configuration.
