When you tested your domain using the [Cloudflare Diagnostic Center](Cloudflare(dot)com /diagnostic-center/), what were the results:
HTTPs not enabled, because cert not yet validated.

Describe the issue you are having:

My domains Edge SSL disappeared, so HTTPs cannot be accessed. Error received: ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH. Then I disabled and re-enabled and now get pending validation which last for 3 days. Tried one more time disabling and re-enabling and have now been waiting a few more hours, but still stuck pending.

This process still not progressed even after disabling/re-enabling universal SSL.

Your DNSSEC Configuration is broken.

It looks like you had DNSSEC Set up at one point, but currently disabled at Cloudflare and not properly set up. Not all DNS Resolvers validate DNSSEC, some ISP-operated Resolvers don’t, but most public ones and Certificate Providers do, which will prevent them from resolving your site/issuing a certificate.

You’ll want to either outright disable DNSSEC, or enable DNSSEC with Cloudflare and update your DNSSEC configuration with the information Cloudflare gives you:

These changes to your DNSSEC Configuration can be done at your Registrar, Porkbun.

After you make these changes to fix your DNSSEC Configuration, the certificate issuance should retry after a bit and succeed. You can use the dnsviz.net tool and click “Update Now” to confirm you fixed the issue, no “BOGUS” status/notices should appear. It will take a bit for changes you make at your registrar to apply though.
