Under Route 53 I have registered a domain name domain.name and created a hosted zone which, by default, has the NS and SOA records.
In Certificates I have requested a public certificate for the domain name domain.name in the us-east-1 region (N. Virginia).
Under the new certificate, I see the notice Add the following CNAME record to your DNS configuration and it has name _1abc2cd5ac5ee12c1234f1234c123b1c.domain.name. and value _e8f2db123456789c2b1a1234ab123456.abcdefghij.acm-validations.aws.
When, under the new domain.name certificate, I click Request Record in Route 53 I see the Success message and this leads me to see the CNAME record under Route 53 with Record name _1abc2cd5ac5ee12c1234f1234c123b1c.domain.name and value _e8f2db123456789c2b1a1234ab123456.abcdefghij.acm-validations.aws.
From this point on the certificate status persistently shows Pending validation (for >3 hours now.)
While I notice that the name property appears to have a trailing period on the certificate page, but does not have the trailing period on the record name, I cannot see anything else which would cause this to fail validation.
