[Bug] Error when creating custom domain with OVH

[caouic]

Hi, when I create a custom domain. The CNAME entries are OK. But TXT entries seems having two '' at the beginning of the name entry.
OVH refuse to create a TXT entry with two '_'
With one '-' the entry is created

I don't really understand the problem, did you compare the txt record? is it having exactly what webstudio gives you? did you use copy button? or copied manually and made a mistake?

[kof]

To me it seems like they are in violation with standards and came up with random rules like "two conscutive underscores are not allowed but one underscore is ok" this smells badly :)

[caouic]

I understand. I want just to report you a problem that could impact future customers. All TXT entries I have to set in the past are this format _domain_com

For the moment, I am stuck with this and all my domain are on OVH. I can’t move them to another hosting provider.

A quick solution would be to connect using cloudflare, this doesn't require switching the dns provider, this video should help https://docs.webstudio.is/errors/connecting-your-hostinger-domain-to-webstudio

If you are in contact with OVH customer support do tell them they are wrong about this error and they need to fix it.

Send them link to the spec
