Record already exists. (Code: 81057)

Hi, I’ve installed and re-installed WordPress numerous times because our Elementor Editor wasn’t working. However, since the first re-install I can’t get into WP Admin anymore. It keeps loading and gives an ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error message. I have cleared cookies, done a hard reload and emptied cache, and have tried opening in incognito, but nothing works.

GoDaddy has advised us that this is the case because we don’t have an A record with @ name and our IP as value. However, when trying to add such a record it returns this error: Record already exists. (Code: 81057)

We currently have the following A records (I’ve replaced the actual IP with {IP} and the website URL in the same manner):
A
admin
{IP}

A
{Website URL}
{IP}

A
mail
{IP}

This is usually caused by improper SSL settings. Is your SSL currently set to flexible in Cloudflare? If so, you should change it to Full (strict).

Cheers, it was indeed set to flexible. Have updated to Full (strict) and it works! Thanks a lot
