What is the name of the domain?

geography.gg

What is the error number?

Pending Nameserver Update

What is the error message?

Pending Nameserver Update

What is the issue you’re encountering

Cloudflare says Pending Nameserver Update despite me disabling DNSSEC, changing the nameservers, and verifying that the nameservers are active via the whois command.

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

The domain recently expired. It got autoremoved from cloudflare. The domain got renewed. I tried re adding the domain back to cloudflare to no avail.
I have:

  • Disabled DNSSEC on namecheap
  • Added the two nameservers to namecheap. ENSURED they’re spelled correctly
  • Removed the domain from cloudflare (it was still pending) and re added it
  • Contacted namecheap support

Hasn’t changed.

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

Nameservers

Cloudflare isn’t resolving for your domain in any nameservers. Most commonly this means you haven’t selected a plan.

Otherwise, check that the correct 2 nameservers are set (they change whenever you delete the add the domain to Cloudflare) and you have spelt your domain correctly when adding to Cloudflare.

Thanks for responding.

From my understanding, I have selected the Free plan and I have set the two nameservers correctly.

This is a screenshot of what cloudflare and namecheap say:

I tried adding the nameservers to PERSONAL DNS SERVER but it only accepts IP addresses, not domains.

Am I doing anything wrong? Is there anything else I should check?

:point_up_2: This is your problem. Your screenshot shows you have added
geograghy.gg to Cloudflare, not
geography.gg
