Why is my GCP Load Balancer Certificate stuck at provisioning?

I've set up everything according to the documentation:

For the certificate provisioning process to proceed, all of the following conditions must be met:

  • The DNS records for your domain must reference the IP address of your load balancer's target proxy,
  • Your target proxy must reference the Google-managed certificate resource.
  • Your load balancer configuration must be complete, including the creation of a forwarding rule.

With a correct configuration the total time for provisioning certificates is likely to take from 30 to 60 minutes.

It's been 2 hours.

Solution

  • I managed to get a reply from someone via https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/117900454. I was ignorantly using Cloud DNS' "CNAME" to point to my IP address instead of using an "A" record. Everything is working now.
