OpenClaw: device identity required (tls)

Common message

device identity required

Symptoms​

  • Browser shows NET::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID
  • cert-manager Certificate stuck in Pending
  • Too many certificates requested

Root cause​

TLS certificate issuance/attachment failure

Fix​

  1. Confirm DNS records for the hostname resolve to the right LB.
  2. Check cert-manager events for ACME/DNS01/HTTP01 failures.
  3. Prefer wildcard certs per user zone if issuing per-host is too slow/limited.
