AutoSSL: The certificate is not available. (processing)
I enabled AutoSSL using Comodo and had several domains where the enrollment resulted in AutoSSL checking for a certificate every 5 minutes but is reporting the following message in the log:
The certificate is not available. (processing)
Though it has been checking for the past week, it continues to be unable to retrieve a certificate.
Can I cancel or delete these certificate requests so that it doesn't continue to poll for a certificate every 5 minutes that isn't going to resolve and start over with a new certificate request?

I'm having the same issue with an order polling every 5 minutes with "The certificate is not available. (processing)". I also have 3 in progress orders which haven't changed status in over 12 hours.0 -
Hi Michael - Yes, attached is the log output (I've attached a text file since it contains 3,000+ lines). I also replaced the cPanel username with cpaneluser, the domain name with domain.com and the order number with 11111111. Thanks for taking a look. 0 -
I have a similar issue. I have a VPS with approx 30 sites on it and most of them received AutoSSL certificates when the WHM update came through and I enabled it. However I have one hosting particular that I've been waiting on for about a week now and it refuses to install as per the issues mentioned above. The only thing different to my other domains is that this one has another domain parked (main .com.au and secondary .com) on the same cpanel account so I'm not sure if that is related to the issue. I would love to find a solution for this. Every time I check the domain, I just get this in the log : 8:57:18 AM This system has AutoSSL set to use "cPanel (powered by Comodo)". 8:57:18 AM Checking websites for "redacted" " 8:57:18 AM The website ".com.au", owned by "redacted", has no SSL certificate.

And this, every 5 minutes for the past 6 hours. What's going on guys? 0 -
Hello, The following utility runs every five minutes as part of a cron job to see if a certificate has been processed: /usr/local/cpanel/bin/autossl_check_cpstore_queue
This should not result in any CPU/Memory issues on your system, but let us know if that's happening. Your system will automatically stop attempting to retrieve a certificate after 86400 seconds (1 day), so if it hasn't been issued within this time, it's removed from the queue and you will no longer see the "processing" message. The troubleshooting steps to see why a certificate was not validated are available at: cPanel & WHM"s AutoSSL/SSL ordering process Let me know if this information helps, or if you have any additional questions. Thank you.0 -
Seems my system is still attempting to retrieve the certificate 5 days later. The log is huge. Is there any support I can get to help with this issue? 0 -

Yeah, that was basically no help at all but thanks. For one hosting account on my VPS it just would NOT install an autoSSL and has been trying daily for the past couple of weeks and I gave up in disgust for a while.

Which made me realise that I didn't have the .com domain parked on the cPanel account correctly Once I re-added that in, I tried again and success! /usr/local/cpanel/bin/autossl_check_cpstore_queuePolling for "redacted""s new certificate for "redacted.com.au" (order item ID "13533889") " The certificate is available.

It would be nice if some of that log file feedback could flow back into the AutoSSL log guys ! My solution was right under my nose but I needed more log information to work it all out. Hope this helps someone else!0 -

I deleted the SSL in Manage SSL Hosts area of WHM, then in Manage AutoSSL/Manage Users clicked the 'check' button and it worked great.0 -
