DNS/Domain issue: Invalid Nameservers
I am trying to get my company's digital infrastructure working, but I am running into some serious problems on the Cloudflare side. Cloudflare asked for mina and newt, and so I gave them mina and newt via Dreamhost. DNS propagation has been 100% for days now, but I still have this bloody "Invalid Nameserver" error. What is the major malfunction here?

I'm not sure if you have a special account.. but one observation. Your domain has 4 nameservers.
If only two are listed in your onboarding instruction, try to delete the other two?
Name Server: MINA.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM Name Server: NEWT.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM Name Server: SUE.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM Name Server: ZOD.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM
Worth a shot, I guess.

It's an easy thing to rule in or out 🙂 The error message said to correct your nameservers.. best of luck.
Actually, I see it's updated already..
Name Server: MINA.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM
Name Server: NEWT.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM
Thanks. Worst case scenario, I have a support ticket logged.
So you could click the 'recheck' on that onboarding and see if the dash strikes that error message?
Holy shit! It actually worked! Do you know that you are the very first person to come up with the correct answer? I have been working on this for days now, lol.
Thanks a bunch! I should have hopped on here about a week ago.
Sorry it's taken so long. 🙂
It is likely not your fault that Cloudflare support is not very supportive. I did not even know there was a Discord channel until just about an hour ago.
Ahh, well... welcome to the discord haha. Good luck with the rest of your onboarding. PS, I've always been a huge fan of Dreamhost.
