Hey everyone! I have a CloudFront distribution set up on AWS that suddenly stopped working today. I kept getting a DNS probe error out of nowhere. When I ran a DIG command on the CloudFront record, I found that there were no IPs for my distribution. To troubleshoot, I disabled and then re-enabled it, which fixed the issue. I'm curious if anyone else encountered similar problems today?

Did you check using just your local or ISP DNS? I recommend using a public DNS checker like dnschecker.org to see if the issue is widespread. It checks from different locations worldwide.
Have you reached out to AWS support about this yet? They might have more insights if it’s a known issue or something specific to your distribution.
I didn’t have any problems today, but I've heard that CloudFront had some hiccups a few days ago with certain distributions, including one of mine. It might just be lingering bugs or issues.
If CloudFront were down, it would definitely be trending by now. But I understand how frustrating it is when things just stop working out of the blue.

Yeah, I get that, but I definitely faced this issue!
