SSL Certificate Stuck at “Waiting on DNS Propagation” for Custom Domain longd.tech

Support
1

Hi Netlify team,

I’ve successfully configured a custom domain (longd.tech) for my site hosted on Netlify. The DNS settings are correct — both A records point to Netlify’s IPs (52.74.232.59 and 52.76.120.174), and DNS propagation has completed (verified using Google DNS and external tools).

The website loads over HTTP as expected at http://longd.tech, but HTTPS is not working.
Netlify keeps showing:

“Waiting on DNS propagation. We’ll provision your Let’s Encrypt certificate automatically…”

At one point, it briefly said “DNS verification was successful,” but then reverted back to the propagation message after a refresh. I haven’t been repeatedly clicking “Verify DNS” to avoid resets, and it’s been more than 24 hours since the setup (excluding the weekend).

I’d really appreciate any help in getting the SSL certificate provisioned for HTTPS access.

Thanks in advance!

Your DNS seems to be pointing to Cloudflare, not Netlify.

Hi hrishkesh,

You’re right — the DNS is currently routed through Cloudflare. I had to switch because Netlify’s Let’s Encrypt provisioning was stuck in the “Waiting on DNS propagation” state for over 72 hours, despite the correct DNS records being in place :grinning_face:.

Cloudflare is now providing HTTPS successfully using its own SSL, so the site is secure and working fine.

I understand Netlify can’t issue a Let’s Encrypt cert while Cloudflare is active, but since my site is now functioning securely via Cloudflare, I’m okay with continuing with this setup unless there’s a downside I should be aware of.

Appreciate your help!
