DNS Error 1016 for IPFS Website

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

Hi,

I’m experiencing an Error 1016 (Origin DNS Error) when visiting my domain.

The site is hosted on IPFS (via Pinata) and I’m using Cloudflare DNS and SSL.

DNS Records Configured:

TXT
Name: _dnslink
Value: dnslink=/ipfs/bafybeigybl2cr3y2nh2ttsv2ju7kuwr3btgtocuain6bbglmd5lkn6t5h4
Proxy: DNS only

CNAME
Name: @
Value: cloudflare-ipfs.com
Proxy: DNS only

CNAME
Name: www
Value:
Proxy: DNS only

SSL Settings:

Mode: Full

“Always Use HTTPS”: Enabled

No A records or proxy enabled anywhere

Other Details:

IPFS CID is valid

IPFS content opens directly here (confirmed working):

DNS propagation verified (checked with DNS tools)

Local DNS flushed and browser cache cleared
it still returns Error 1016.

Request:
Could someone help verify what’s going wrong with IPFS + Cloudflare setup for the root domain? Any config change I’m missing?

Thanks,

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

DNS not responding/updating
