Universal SSL stuck in “TXT validation pending

What is the name of the domain?

What is the error number?

N/A

What is the error message?

ERR_SSL_VERSION_OR_CIPHER_MISMATCH

What is the issue you’re encountering

My domain’s Universal SSL is stuck in “Validation pending (TXT)” status. I cannot cancel or issue a new certificate. I had not intended to use DNS TXT validation. Now Cloudflare does not serve any SSL certificate at all, and the site is down via HTTPS.

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

  • Disabled and re-enabled Universal SSL
  • Tried switching SSL/TLS modes (Flexible, Full, Full (Strict))
  • Tried issuing a new Edge Certificate

Was the site working with SSL prior to adding it to Cloudflare?

Yes

What is the current SSL/TLS setting?

Full

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

Your site, with SSL certificate, seems to be working ok for me…

The certificate was issued just over an hour ago.
