SSL Certificate - nGinx - error 404

Question

I'm following this tutorial to generate a SSL certificate for my server but I'm getting this error.

Failed authorization procedure. example.com (http-01): urn:acme:error:unauthorized :: The client lacks sufficient authorization :: Invalid response from http://example.com/.well-known/acme-challenge/OdiQ9qPI7vwc-KVBOwc6BQulaN1827zzfx2ipqznmNM: " 404 Not Found

nGinx

location ^~ /.well-known/ {
                allow all;
                root /var/www/laravel;
        }

nginx-t does not return any error. If I create a folder test and a file text.txt I'm able to access it with http://example.com/.well-known/test/text.txt. I tried removing the folder well-know, set chmod 0777 nothing is working...

What am I missing ?

try to change the config block to

location ~ .well-known/ {
         allow all;
         root /var/www/laravel;
}

        allow all;
        root /var/www/laravel;
    }
