Always too many errors with the autossl procedure, instead of speeding up these procedures it wastes time

For a new domain we get

Good morning,

I appear to be getting the same error message whilst AutoSSL runs on accounts that do not have an active certificate:

11:14:43 AM The system will attempt to renew the SSL certificate for DOMAINNAME.COM

Hey everyone - we've got some more details on this here: https://support.cpanel.net/hc/en-us/articles/11427051388439

(you will need to be signed in to view and watch that page)

We're having some internal issues with the AutoSSL system that are being worked on right now, and we'll update that page once it is resolved. I'll also post an update here.
