Hi @vinothrallapalli-eGov

We are facing challenges trying to access the server using the domain. Here are the relevant logs to help diagnose the issue:

certificates:

vm:/home/ubuntu/DIGIT-DevOps-DIGIT-2.9LTS# kubectl get certificate -n egov
NAME                                        READY   SECRET                                      AGE
(name).in-tls-certs                         False   (name).in-tls-certs                         23h
urbanimcdev.eydemoapp.in-tls-certs          True    urbanimcdev.eydemoapp.in-tls-certs          23h

challenge status:
