Universal SSL Stuck in “Pending Validation” — No Backup Certificate Generated
I’m having trouble with Universal SSL on my free Cloudflare account. The Universal SSL certificate for my domain is stuck in “Pending Validation (TXT)”, and I’ve tried all the recommended steps:
1. Changing DNS records to DNS-only and back to Proxied after waiting.
2. Disabling and re-enabling Universal SSL.
3. Verifying that there are no CAA records restricting issuance.
4. Using Flexible SSL temporarily to see if it would re-trigger validation.
Despite this, the certificate status remains “Pending Validation,” and a backup certificate is also neither generated nor visible in the panel.
Any advice or guidance on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
