SSL cert not validating

0

I had an SSL expire and was not eligible for renewal, so i created a new one and created the records in Route 53 where my domain is. I am still waiting for the DNS validation and it has been a long time. I looked it up and it should take no more than 30 minutes. Perhaps I have done something wrong in the setup. I originally selected the email validation but I have no emails attached to that domain, so I deleted that certificate, requested a new one, and set that one up with DNS validation. I went through the process and have my domain in 53 so it was set up correctly, but still no DNS validation has occurred. Not sure what else to look for. I deleted the previous one that was expired and was ineligible for renewal. the expired one and the new one did have the same values, not sure if that would be an issue. I am not well versed in this side of things :) any help is appreciated.

if your domain is registered and administered through Route 53 then the TXT record can be automatically created by AWS Certificate Manager. Once you have created the cert, and its status is Pending validation, click on it, then Create record and its status should soon change to Issued (you may need to refresh the page).

If you are still having trouble with renewal it would be useful to go through this https://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/userguide/troubleshooting-renewal.html

    I was able to use the 'Create record in Route 53' button. I do see it in the Route 53 within the correct domain. It hasnt taken this long for DNS validation in the past but i dont have much experience with it. I thought maybe since the previous SSL did not renew and was expired there may have been another issue that was preventing the new SSL to be validated.

    I just tried and it took less than a minute to validate a new cert. Try refreshing the page that the cert is on in AWS Console.
