What is the issue you’re encountering

I recently added my website to Cloudflare and set up SSL, but my Edge Certificate status is stuck on “Pending Validation” in the SSL/TLS settings.

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

• Added my domain to Cloudflare and changed the nameservers successfully.
• Enabled Full (Strict) SSL mode.
• Verified that my origin server has a valid SSL certificate.
• Waited for over 24 hours, but the Edge Certificate is still not issued.

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

• Is there a way to manually force Cloudflare to issue the certificate?
• Could this be a problem with Let’s Encrypt or Google Trust Services?
• What logs can I check to troubleshoot this further?
• Are there any specific firewall rules or security settings that might be causing this issue?
  I appreciate any insights from the community.

Thanks!

Hi Smith,

I encountered the same issue with one of my domain and I was able to resolve it by starting fresh. Here’s what worked for me:

1. Remove the domain from your Cloudflare account completely.
2. Re-add the domain as a new site. This process allowed the settings to reset and resolved the issue.

Give it a try, and I hope it works for you too! Let me know if you need further assistance.

Thank me later!
