Invalid Configuration for domain

Still Getting “Invalid Configuration” for www.sensoryapproved.com — Using Namecheap DNS

Issue Overview

I’ve followed the full DNS setup flow for a custom domain (sensoryapproved.com) using Namecheap DNS with a Vercel-hosted React project.

My goal is:

  • www.sensoryapproved.com should point to my Vercel project and serve over HTTPS
  • sensoryapproved.com should redirect to www

Current Status

  • sensoryapproved.com shows :white_check_mark: Valid Configuration in Vercel and is set to redirect to www
  • But www.sensoryapproved.com is still stuck on :cross_mark: Invalid Configuration
  • SSL hasn’t issued and the site won’t load at www

What I’ve Already Tried

DNS Settings in Namecheap (Confirmed and Live)

Type: A
Host: @
Value: 76.76.21.21
TTL: Automatic

### 🔍 Other Things I Checked

* No `_acme-challenge` TXT records present
* SendGrid email setup (DKIM + SPF) doesn’t seem to conflict — all names are scoped properly
* CNAME for `www` was verified via MXToolbox
* A record for root domain is pointing to Vercel IP
* CAA record is publicly resolvable

The domain troubleshooting guide can help with most custom domain configuration issues. You might be able to use that guide to solve it before a human is available to help you. Then you can come back here and share the answer for bonus points.

You can also use v0 to narrow down the possibilities.

Hi @kellihrivnak, welcome to the Vercel Community!

I am able to access both the URLs correctly. Can you confirm everything is working as expected now?
