AutoSSL failed to issue certificate
I'm new to WHM/cpanel so excuse me if I'm doing something obviously wrong.
We're trying to migrate web sites to a new WHM server and the first site is failing to receive a certificate with AutoSSL. Here is the log output (hostname changed to example.com);
I assume the warnings are because the server is using NAT and is retrieving the private IP address which is not routable (192.168.55.23) DNS is being hosted on 2 servers using cpanel DNS-Only and has the TXT reported in the errors. Where am I going wrong?

HI @David Barter According to this its unable to get an IP address return for the domain. Does it resolve properly on the server? If you are NAT routing can you run the following and let me know the output? /scripts/build_cpnat0 -
Lauren- Script output; info [build_cpnat] 192.168.55.23 => Which is the correct public IP for this site. 0 -
Hi @David Barter Now if you attempt to run AutoSSL once more do you get the same error? 0 -
Lauren- Yes, same error. 0 -
Hi @David Barter Thanks for that, I primarily wanted to ensure there that the issue wasn't with the NAT routing configuration. It doesn't sound like there's any issues with that, it sounds like there may be an issue with DNS on the server. When you run the following for your domain do you get any errors? dig +trace domain.tld0 -
Lauren- No error was produced and the domain was correctly resolved. 0 -

Hello @David Barter I just checked in on the ticket and it looks like the sites were set up with the internal IP address (which is unusual) the analyst provided instructions on how to resolve this as well as offered to assist with the conversion using the IP address migration tool - please let us know if you continue to experience issues with this once the IP address issue is resolved. 0
