    Could not verify HTTP challenges. Please check whether HTTP challenge files uploaded to acme-challenge folder is publicly accessible. Some hosts purposefully block BOT access to acme-challenge folder, please try DNS based verification.

    I can’t Verify DNS challenges because I have reached the maximum number of DNS records possible for this service. I should replace 2 of them but I don’t know which could be

    @joseleonweb Looks like public access of files in acme-challenge folder is definitely blocked on your hosting server. Please delete all _acme-challenge records in your domain DNS records and add the newly requested TXT records, then you should be able to complete domain verification and generate SSL certificate.
