Please let me know if there is sensible information in here I should not share. My URL and server IP not needs to be secret, changed user and servername.

This may relate to #668 I am not sure.

I had something setup wrong b4 I think this may be how I got here. I have trellis setup to block root ssh and it has the pass do get sudo with the admin user i can use myself so ssh in. I see this in /srv/www. In the letsencrypt dir there is only a empty ping.txt. Should Trellis not get sudo at this point and set the permissions right? Should I set them manually now? To what exactly? My guess is the root:root is wrong here but I think Trellis should automatically take care of this.

It looks like you have not run ansible-playbook server.yml -e env=production. You can't deploy if you haven't provisioned the server. See: https://roots.io/trellis/docs/remote-server-setup/
