Same error as some people were having in 2019 - a temporary bug?

I have a static site hosted on netlify. Today I changed my domain from .com to .tk. After setting up the DNS stuff, in Domain Management I got an error like `SniCertificate::CertificateInvalidError: Unable to verify challenge for *.foobar.tk`. The details below shown that the previous .com domain is still used when trying to renew the Let’s Encrypt certificate.

Hi @PhilStollery! Welcome to netlify community.

This should be working now! We need to fix the messaging on that page. I am not convinced we were “unable to verify challenge”. 🙂

Hi, @tenshis, and welcome to the Netlify community site. 😃

I’m showing this SSL certificate was updated at 12:22 UTC today. Is it working for you now?

If there are other questions or concerns, please let us know.

Hi!  
I have the same problem as stated before. I can’t even access the domain [https://rangbagen.se](https://rangbagen.se).

I have had the website up for 3 months and then it couldn’t renew the certificate, and now I can’t even access the site.  
Do you guys have any idea what the problem can be?
