DNS_ERROR_SIGNING_KEY_NOT_ACCESSIBLE

DNS_ERROR_SIGNING_KEY_NOT_ACCESSIBLE means the DNS Server cannot access one or more signing keys required by the zone. Zone signing cannot operate reliably until the key-access failure is resolved.

What to check

  • Identify the affected key and determine whether it is missing, disabled, stored in an unavailable provider, or blocked by permissions.
  • Check the DNS Server event log and the service account context used to access the key material.
  • Do not delete an inaccessible key until you have confirmed its status in the rollover plan and the impact on DNSSEC validation.
