Amazon Route 53 Alias Record / Zone File not working - external domain registrar

My domain "donite.de" is not accessible. I am using Amazon 53 with an external domain registrar.

At my domain registrar I have the following Zone File. (The SOA and NS records can only be configured this way)

$TTL 7200
@   IN SOA ns-787.awsdns-34.net. awsdns-hostmaster.amazon.com. (
    2019121606   ; serial
    7200         ; refresh
    900          ; retry
    1209600      ; expire
    86400 )      ; minimum

@                        IN NS      ns-787.awsdns-34.net.
@                        IN NS      ns-194.awsdns-24.com.
@                        IN NS      ns-1452.awsdns-53.org.
@                        IN NS      ns-1880.awsdns-43.co.uk.

In the non editable view it looks like this: Domain registrar summary

And this is my Amazon Route 53 Configuration:

However if I type in my domain "donite.de", it says that the website can not be found. (In chrome its: ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED)

The Cloudfront distribution "d17wesggm9cak6.cloudfront.net" itself is working.

A DNS Checker Tool is showing me that the nameservers are known almost everywhere. https://dnschecker.org/#NS/donite.de

Sometimes a few correct Alias records also show up somewhere: https://dnschecker.org/#A/donite.de

The site "https://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=dns%3adonite.de&run=toolpage" is giving me the error "Primary Name Server Not Listed At Parent ns-787.awsdns-34.net". Dont know if it matters.

What can I do to make my domain "donite.de" being accessible?

Solution

  • Eventually I had to contact my domain registrar so they change the nameservers manually.
