DNS Propagation and SSL

To follow up,

This is working now. The additional delay seems to have been enough to allow things to work right when our system attempted to re-issue the certificate.

Generally, the reason we are unable to provision a complete SSL certificate for your custom domain is that the DNS cache time to live (TTL) value for a record has not had time to expire (from your old settings) before you tried to use it with Netlify. Our SSL provider (https://letsencrypt.org) is unable to create certificates for names that have old cached values still in effect.

I’m not sure what was happening, but the issue is resolved. However, I think something else was contributing to the problems as well.

I was receiving the following error from an ALIAS I added:

Domain has multiple A records

While I’m not 100% the ALIAS and the propagation issue was related, it seemed to resolve about 30 minutes after I removed it.

I opened a new ticket for the ALIAS issue as I think it warranted a separate thread:
