then its throwing me few errors on subdomains which I havent even created.

Hello, Is it possible these subdomains were created in the past, or are the subdomains associated with addon domain names on the account? Are the subdomains listed in cPanel under the "Subdomains" option? Thank you.

The domains are addon domains which automatically created subdomains while I migrated from directadmin. All subdomains are listed except the ipv6.maindomain.com which is not listed/added

The following thread offers information on troubleshooting the validation failure messages for the subdomains: cPanel & WHM"s AutoSSL/SSL ordering process Could you let us know the output from the cURL command referenced on that thread if the issue continues? As for the subdomain that shouldn't exist, could you try removing the entry for that subdomain in the DNS zone associated with the domain name it's added under, and then adding/deleting that subdomain in cPanel? Thank you.

The output is

root@compile:~# curl "user-agent "COMODO DCV" "insecure "max-time 10 "retry 0 http://subdomain.com/test.txt

I'd like to note that this domain has a valid ssl from godaddy. But not other domains. Should I remove htaccess redirect to https for letsencrypt to work? And, I dont manage dns in my cpanel server. Its godaddy dns. Should I remove the zone from godaddy dns?

Should I remove htaccess redirect to https for letsencrypt to work?

Could you try the solution in the AutoSSL and HTTPS Redirects thread and let us know if that's helpful? Thank you.
