Migrating to FTH4

Your club admin received the instructions to update their admin password to access FTH4. (FTH3 admin passwords will NOT work in FTH4). Follow the instructions in the email and use 'Member sign in' in the top right corner to access the Club Admin account.

If you are not sure who the club admin is, in your member account; look at 'Club Officers and Members' > "Club Email addresses". The LAST item in this list is the person who is currently listed as your club admin.

If this is not correct, please complete and submit this form to change your club admin:

Resolving "unable to create / renew a HTTPS certificate"

4 years 4 months ago

I logged into the website for Irvine Project Masters #3672902 as administrator in order to update the website, and saw a warning message: "[2022-05-28 08:12:06 GMT, FreeToastHost System Warning]  *** IMPORTANT! ***

NOTE:  We were unable to create / renew a HTTPS certificate for your custom domain: www.irvinepm.org
This means that you may not be able to access your website using https:// with your custom domain 
name after any existing certificates expire."

I confirmed that our custom domain has NOT expired. ( www.godaddy.com/whois/results.aspx?check...&domain=irvinepm.org indicates that it will not expire for more than a year.) I am not aware that we use domain forwarding. 

www.digwebinterface.com/?hostnames=www.i...ns=auth&nameservers=
reports;; Truncated, retrying in TCP mode.
[url=javascript:addhost('www.irvinepm.org.')] www.irvinepm.org .[/url] 3600 IN CNAME [url=javascript:addhost('irvinepm.org.')]irvinepm.org.[/url]
[url=javascript:addhost('irvinepm.org.')]irvinepm.org.[/url] 3600 IN NS [url=javascript:addns('ns18.domaincontrol.com.')]ns18.domaincontrol.com.[/url]
[url=javascript:addhost('irvinepm.org.')]irvinepm.org.[/url] 3600 IN NS [url=javascript:addns('ns17.domaincontrol.com.')]ns17.domaincontrol.com.[/url]

To me, this doesn't indicate any obvious thing that would cause the reported problem.

Can you please advise on what further diagnostics I can try that would determine why this failure occurred, so that "Note that the system may remove your custom domain from the database to prevent further invalid attempts at cert renewals." doesn't happen? Because as it stands, I don't see anything obvious that I can fix.

Thanks!

The certificates are renewed before their expiry date.  Yours failed on 28 May, but it was been successful in the subsequent run, so no action is required.
The certification is provided as a service to clubs using custom domains for their FTH sites.
