Cloudflare DNS not operational, Can't install Letsencrypt certs

Cyberhorse · August 20, 2026, 5:52am

None of the domains on my AsipCS site are operating. Noticed that Letsencrypt cert had all expired. Auto renew does not work. Tried to do it manually using cpcmd which installed certs but httpd does not recognise them. System health says that Apache is not running. Restarting apnscp changes nothing. Startup log says httpd is running as root and also as an apnscp service.

Can’t access any site via http or https.

Sounds like your internal IP address changed. Apache log is located in /var/log/httpd/error_log. journalctl -n50 -u httpd should also provide salient information. If it has changed, see Changing IPs under NAT/Private networks.

To reissue all certificates if they expired for whatever reason, see Mass reissuance under SSL.

Cyberhorse · August 20, 2026, 8:21pm

The ip address is the same as it has been for the last two years. When I try to access the DNS for cyberhorse.com.au I get -
Action failed

Cannot fetch zone information for `cyberhorse.com.au': no master nameserver configured in config.ini

Nameserver is cloudflare and set as such in config.ini.

I can ping that address from my server. Domain expires 2028. Delegated to CHLOE.NS.CLOUDFLARE.COM.

Default DNS provider is set to “builtin”. Sign into the account for cyberhorse.com.au under Nexus, then view DNS via DNS > DNS Manager.

Look at /var/log/httpd/error_log as well as journalctl. Two different logging channels.

Cyberhorse · August 20, 2026, 11:20pm

I am using Cloudflare as DNS provider - this is for all domains on the server. None are accessible.
[root@host apnscp]# cpcmd scope:get dns.default-provider
cloudflare

The only options I have available on the domain DNS menu are -
Add on domains
SPF Setup
Traceroute
Whois

/var/log/httpd/error_log is empty

I was able to install a certificate for cyberhorse.com.au manually by generating directly with Letsencrypt and copying into the site4 ssl directory. Copied cert bundle and key. Nexus recognises it but it can’t be used.

dns,enabled is 0 or dns,provider is not set to cloudflare for the domain. This assertion is determined in templateconfig-site.php:492, which in turn calls dns:configured. This is a simple check to ensure a DNS provider is used.

# Reports 0/empty value
cpcmd -d SITE  dns:configured
# Reports builtin, null
cpcmd -d SITE dns:get-provider
# Reports 0/empty value
cpcmd -d SITE dns:enabled

That is expected. Certificates are not served from that location. See SSL > Importing certificates.

Apache reads the named IPs from /etc/httpd/conf/httpd-custom.conf. For each Listen directive, which may or may not be prefixed with an IP address. If no addresses/ports can be bound this error bubbles up.

There should be an accompanying error, for example if I change Listen 80 to Listen 22 (sshd), then run httpd -k restart, then we see something a bit more descriptive in /var/log/httpd/error_log

The fact that yours is empty is of concern. You’re looking in the global filesystem, not within an account’s vfs, correct? /var/log/httpd/error_log, not /home/virtual/site1/fst/var/log/httpd/error_log and as root, correct?

Cyberhorse · August 21, 2026, 9:11pm

I’m looking in error_log globally and in the account instance. Both are empty. Apache is shown as running in apnscp start log but disabled in the system control panel.

I think that because host.cyberhorse.com.au is the master account for the server everything is stuffed because I can’t get cloudflare to override builtin DNS. Just tried this -
[root@host /]# cpcmd scope:set dns.default-provider cloudflare
1
You have new mail in /root/Mail
[root@host /]# cpcmd -d cyberhorse.com.au dns:get-provider
builtin
Did this after setting up a new cloudflare token and setting a new key in ApisCP global configuration. It was you who advised me to use Cloudflare when I first set up the system two years ago and it worked fine until May when all the certs failed to update. I’ve spent 3 days trying to get Coudflare to work but as you can see even when I set it in the backend the setting is ignored.

msaladna · August 21, 2026, 9:35pm

That’s a separate instance for the panel.

EditDomain -c dns,provider=cloudflare cyberhorse.com.au

When a default value is changed, we don’t want to potentially catastrophically undo all per-account changes. Imagine what would happen if you ran cpcmd scope:set dns.default-provider null and it deleted every DNS zone across every account .

As for Apache handling traffic on all accounts - what does httpd -k restart report, same errors verbatim? If so, PM me the contents from /etc/httpd/conf/httpd-custom.conf and /etc/httpd/conf/virtual-httpd-built (or /etc/httpd/conf/virtual-httpd-built.bad if it exists).

Cyberhorse · August 21, 2026, 10:10pm

I have no idea how your commands are supposed to be executed. Is this a cpcmd command or just executed as you give it to me? This is what I get. I’ve already setup the key for cloudflare in the configuration. Does it just get ignored if I do EditDomain? If I do EditDomain how and where do I specify the token? Your documentation is silent on that score. And nowhere does it say that config cannot be used to specify a nameserver for all domains. If it can’t be done why even provide the global setting?

No default provider key is set. This is covered in DNS > Providers > Cloudflare DNS Provider > Setting as default. If set, EditDomain -c dns,provider=cloudflare -c dns,key=DEFAULT would work.

The platform is designed to be flexible without giving people footguns, so explicit usage is preferred over implied features.

Cyberhorse · August 21, 2026, 11:50pm

Ran the EditDomain command as suggested. The output of a string of error messages plus “DNS for zone `cyberhorse.com.au’ already exists, not overwriting” suggests nothing has been changed for the better. Can’t even get into the control panel now.

Key is different from a token. See DNS > Provieers > Cloudflare DNS Provider > Using API tokens. This is covered in that section just above the formerly-linked paragraph on Setting as default.

I should see if my local library is hiring, I’d make an excellent librarian.

Now this is in line with your Apache errors. Something’s toast in your network stack, which I deliberately touch as little as possible with this platform.

Possibly the routable network changed or for whatever reason you don’t have any interface bound or you lost IPv4 and are purely IPv6… if that’s the case, to dump IPv4 entirely: cpcmd scope:set cp.bootstrapper has_ipv4 false ; upcp -sbf ; EditDomain --reconfig --all

I’d reach out to your VPS provider for assistance. Possibly provide them with the results from ifconfig and route. It’s quite rare for IPv4 to not exist on a machine.

Here’s what fsockopen should look like:

[root@rocky-test ~]# php -r 'fsockopen("udp://1.1.1.1", 53);'
[root@rocky-test ~]#

And a corresponding strace (note 0 exit code, parlance for success in Linux ABI):

No errors, clean connection to 1.1.1.1.

The bottom line for me here is that instead of being able to use the browser based configuration setup to administer ApsiCP you expect me to be a Unix guru with the very high level of expertise you obviously possess. You are basically telling me my whole configuration is stuffed without offering any clue as to how to resolve it.

FYI “my network stack” is your network stack. I am running a dedicated Rocky server set up to run only ApisCP. The only code running on the server is Rocky and ApisCP. So if there are any errors they are in that setup. The only reference to IPv6 is in your configuration files. I have not touched these settings and only use IPv4 addresses.

It makes no difference now as browser adminstration no longer works after my attempt at using AddDomain to set Cloudflare as the nameserver.

Not what I regard as helpful at all.

I’m working through your situation in an open forum. If the issue were clear cut, it wouldn’t drag out for as long as it has. An inability to connect to 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare) for DNS over IPv4 is very peculiar. This would explain why Apache doesn’t log anything supplementary beyond a nebulous no listening sockets available, shutting down.

I have asked you to PM me data. None such has come through. After learning additional information, I don’t think it’s Apache but rather something is toast with IPv4.

I’m sorry this product hasn’t met your expectations. I believe the best step forward is to provide a refund for your lifetime license to allow you to explore alternative products. I looked up your license information within the database but couldn’t find any matching records. Please send me a PM with your email address registered in my.apiscp.com to process this ASAP.
