I couldn't recall if this was normal or an error. The issue turned out to be an inaccessible challenge directory, but the path to a solution was not clear.\r\n\r\nTroubleshooting docs state:\r\n\r\n> Check that you can successfully browse /.well-known/acme-challenge/\r\n\r\nI tripped over the obvious here as well. This directory is not browsable (nor should it be, of course). Suggest something like:\r\n\r\n> Verify that you can successfully browse /.well-known/acme-challenge/[name of challenge file] over http (not https). A list of challenge files is available via the SCM:\r\n> \r\n> https://[your-site].scm.azurewebsites.net/api/vfs/LocalSiteRoot/VirtualDirectory0/site/wwwroot/.well-known/acme-challenge/\r\n> \r\n> (You may need to change \"VirtualDirectory0\" as well depending on your hosting configuration.)\r\n\r\nThanks again for your work on this. Hopefully my fumbling can save others some time."}}
