Problem adding multiple CNAME records to AWS Route53

0

I'm trying to verify my AWS domain to use SES and am having problems creating the DNS records that AWS is telling me to add. I have to create 3 CNAME records but it will only accept 1 record even though there's a tip that says add multiple records on new lines:

Error occurred Bad request. (InvalidChangeBatch 400: RRSet of type CNAME with DNS name \052.XXXX.org. does not contain exactly one resource record.) I use * as the subdomain name because the root level is not allowed to contain a CNAME record. If I try to add 3 records using * subdomain I get the following error:

Error occurred A record with the specified name already exists. (InvalidChangeBatch 400: Tried to create resource record set [name='\052.XXX.org.', type='CNAME'] but it already exists) At this point I'm confused as to how to add these 3 records. Any help would be appretiated

Accepted Answer

DNS records should be created one by one.
Perhaps what you are trying to do is "verify the DKIM domain ID" as described in the following document.

  • Yes, that is what I am trying to do. I tried combo because there's a tip that says add them on their own lines but its barfs when I do. I tried individual records as can be seen from the above error it will only let me add 1 CNAME entry not 3.

    "Error occurred A record with the specified name already exists. (InvalidChangeBatch 400: Tried to create resource record set [name='\052.XXX.org.', type='CNAME'] but it already exists)"

  • Record name is the Name column in the document. Record name must be entered up to _domainkey Value must be set to one corresponding to Name. Cname records should be set one by one. image

  • duh. I knew I was missing something. Thanks for the help.
