Troubleshooting

Solutions for common problems you might encounter.

Error: Connection Failed

If scan fails with connection error:

  • Ensure the entered domain is valid and accessible
  • Check if firewall blocks access to the domain
  • Verify that domain is not using strict Cloudflare or DDoS protection settings

Domain Verification Failed

If domain verification fails:

  • Ensure the TXT record is added to the correct domain (root domain, not subdomain)
  • Wait 5-10 minutes for DNS propagation (some providers may take longer)
  • Verify the TXT record value is exactly as shown in the dialog (no extra spaces)
  • Use a DNS checker tool to verify the TXT record is visible
  • Check with your DNS provider if there are any restrictions on TXT records

Invalid SSL Certificate

If scan results show invalid SSL certificate:

  • Check your SSL certificate expiration date
  • Ensure certificate is installed correctly on the server
  • Verify that the scanned domain matches the certificate
  • Update certificate if expired or about to expire

Low Security Score

To improve security score:

  • Implement recommended security headers
  • Close unnecessary ports
  • Update SSL certificate to stronger configuration
  • Fix detected DNS misconfigurations
