Domain replication flapping expressmc.com

What is the name of the domain?

What is the issue you’re encountering

Domain replication is flapping

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

I have recreated all DNS entries but when I look at dig or propagation checker sometimes they show OK and sometimes they show not replicated.

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

DNS records

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

open dig or digwebinterface.com and check all, wait a few min and check again

Can you show what results you get? If you have just changed the nameservers for your domain to Cloudflare it may be that some resolvers still return the previous nameservers until the TTL expires.

Sometimes they show a green check and sometimes the show red.

whatsmydns.net is not a particularly reliable tool.

I’ve also been using digwebinterface.com but I am open to other tools. Maybe DNS isn’t flapping and I have another issue.

Other than the never ending construction on I35 to the north and south of you what problem are you experiencing?

Are users receiving an error when visiting the website?

I can’t get domain verification to work with our hosting provider (flywheel) and they keep pointing at replication being the issue.

The website is available and resolving, but without domain verification they won’t create SSL certs so it shows untrusted in all browsers.

Likely you need to set the DNS records to “DNS only” and not proxied so they can see their IP addresses instead of the Cloudflare proxy ones.

This will mean all requests go direct to your host and not through Cloudflare. You can try re-enabling the proxy after they have validated but if you get an error in 3 months you’ll need to do it again so they can renew the cert.

Correct, I have DNS only set on all the records

Then there should be no problem. Ask the host why they don’t see the records.

I believe the issue is on our hosting side.
