Invalid Nameservers

  • Used DNS checker tools (like https://dnschecker.org/) to verify propagation
  • Cleared browser cache and tried checking from different networks
  • Waited for more than 24 hours but the issue persists
  • I have NOT enabled DNSSEC.

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

Screenshot of the error

You have a DNSSEC issue which will need to be resolved at your registrar.

I have checked and DNSSEC was not turned on from my side before changing the nameserver. In this case, do I need to contact GoDaddy to resolve this?

When I last checked there was an error. I forced a reanalysis and it came back clean. But it also returned your current nameservers as a pair other than the Cloudflare pair you had previously.

"I previously switched the nameservers back to GoDaddy to check and remove the DS record from the system. Now that I have removed it, I have just switched back to Cloudflare’s nameservers. Could you please verify the correctness for me again? Thank you!

“I really appreciate your help! The nameservers are now active, and everything is working correctly. The issue I encountered was that, even though I never enabled DNSSEC, GoDaddy automatically added a DS record, which prevented the nameserver change from being fully completed. Without your assistance, I wouldn’t have been able to resolve this. Thank you so much!” :blush:
