I'm having trouble using WHM/Cpanel to set up CNAME records for my heroku app.
I've set up the records as follows - see link to image.
dapcards.com is resolving to the heroku app with no problems.
However, www.dapcards.com fails:
> host dapcards.com
dapcards.com has address 75.101.145.87
dapcards.com has address 75.101.163.44
dapcards.com has address 174.129.212.2
dapcards.com mail is handled by 0 dapcards.com.
> host www.dapcards.com
Host www.dapcards.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
Host www.dapcards.com not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
When I use the dnsstuff.com tool, it seems to get to proxy.heroku.com fine, but produces an error:
[BOGUS ANSWER: This server is not authoritative for proxy.heroku.com.:
it refers back to the root servers]
I'm obviously missing something here. Has anyone got any ideas? Would really appreciate some advice!
Cheers, Rob
Perhaps you didn't wait long enough for DNS to propagate? Looks fine here:
$ host www.dapcards.com
www.dapcards.com is an alias for proxy.heroku.com.
proxy.heroku.com has address 50.16.233.102
proxy.heroku.com has address 174.129.212.2
proxy.heroku.com has address 75.101.145.87
$ host dapcards.com
dapcards.com has address 75.101.145.87
dapcards.com has address 75.101.163.44
dapcards.com has address 174.129.212.2
dapcards.com mail is handled by 0 dapcards.com.
