SOLVED AutoSSL not creating certificates

[coursevector]

I looked and looked and couldn't find a solution to my problem. I have about 20~ accounts all with valid domains. But AutoSSL says it can't get certificates for them. See below:

Log for the AutoSSL run for “USERNAME”: Friday, December 9, 2016 9:34:45 AM GMT-0500 (cPanel (powered by Comodo))
2:34:45 PM This system has AutoSSL set to use “cPanel (powered by Comodo)”.
2:34:45 PM Checking websites for “USERNAME” …
2:34:45 PM The website “example.com”, owned by “USERNAME”, has no SSL certificate. AutoSSL will attempt to obtain a new certificate and install it.
2:34:45 PM WARN The domain “example.com” failed domain control validation: “example.com” does not resolve to any IPv4 addresses on the internet. at bin/autossl_check.pl line 512.
2:34:45 PM WARN The domain “www.example.com” failed domain control validation: “www.example.com” does not resolve to any IPv4 addresses on the internet. at bin/autossl_check.pl line 512.
2:34:45 PM WARN The domain “mail.example.com” failed domain control validation: “mail.example.com” does not resolve to any IPv4 addresses on the internet. at bin/autossl_check.pl line 512.
2:34:45 PM The system has completed the AutoSSL check for “USERNAME”.
2:34:45 PM The system has finished checking 1 user.

Except that example.com, www.example.com, etc all work and are valid. I have this error for all the accounts on the server.

Ticket #8048341

I managed to get the certificates to go through by disabling CSF/LFD. But this is not a great solution in the 90days when the certificates need to renew. I checked the IPs used to validate the text files and they were not blocked by CSF. So something else is causing the issue.

This was resolved, there was a block in CSF for:

192.0.0.0/8 # lfd: (NETBLOCK) 192.0.0.0/8

Some of the root DNS servers are in the 192 block and that was causing the issue. Removing the block fixed the issue.
