Verify domain with Apple Pay and Stripe using AWS Lightsail

Hello, I'm working on connecting Stripe and Apple Pay to my Lightsail instance. In order to validate the domain, Apple requires that we place a file in the .well-known folder. I placed the file and attempt to verify the domain but it does not work. I tried to access the file directly in the browser and it says permission denied. I tried changing the owner and group to bitnami and daemon but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions.
