AutoSSL failures are usually more useful when treated as validation errors rather than generic SSL errors.
- Open SSL/TLS Status and read the error shown for the hostname.
- Verify the domain and any required subdomain resolve correctly.
- Check whether the hostname is still intended to be hosted on this account.
- Review CAA records and other DNS restrictions.
- Confirm the domain is not using an invalid or stale configuration.
- After correcting the cause, run AutoSSL again if the control is available.
Avoid deleting unrelated private keys or certificates while troubleshooting a DCV problem.
