challenge.request_validation returning invalid in DNS01 challenge type

advir29 opened this issue · comments

challenge.request_validation is returning status as invalid in DNS01 challenge type.
I have checked with txt DNS records. Challenge text, etc. are properly applied. I have also ensured to wait before requesting validation of challenge so that those records propagate properly.
It was working a month or so ago.
I am new to this.
Request you to suggest any other probable cause I need to address to resolve this issue?

👋 Hi @advir29,

Are you using acme-client with Let's Encrypt? If so we would be happy to help you debug the issue over at the Let's Encrypt community forum: https://community.letsencrypt.org You can start by opening a new topic in the "Help" section and completing as many of the template questions as you can. Likely this is a problem with your deployment and not a bug with acme-client itself.

This issue occurred due to the unreliability of my TLD. A workaround suggested on community forum fixed the issue.
