My college website www.chenabgrw.edu.pk was published on weebly. I purchased a new hosting service and updated nameservers. I installed wordpress on a subdomain www.new.chenabgrw.edu.pk After designing new site I deleted my weebly site to shift subdomain new.chenabgrw.edu.pk but I am still getting a 404 error of weebly.
For now I have made an html page on weebly having javascript of on page load redirect function which redirect main domain chenabgrw.edu.pk to new.chenabgrw.edu.pk
This isn't going to be (would not have been) a Weebly issue, but instead a DNS issue. Or you were seeing cached information from your browser/network.
As it stands now, you have a CNAME for www.chenabgrw.edu.pk pointed to chenabgrw.edu.pk but chenabgrw.edu.pk is pointed to a Weebly IP Address (199.34.288.67). In other words both the Root and the WWW are pointed to the Weebly IP Address.
So, seeing that your NAMESERVERS are pointed to hosterpk.com you would want to log into the hosterpk.com account, where you manage your domains DNS, and point the Root Domain chenabgrw.edu.pk's A Record to 69.162.90.106 ~Then you should be able to set the domain to use chenabgrw.edu.pk instead of new.chenabgrw.edu.pk
Keep in mind that after you make DNS changes it may take time for them to update. You can use a service like http://www.who.is/dns/new.chenabgrw.edu.pk or http://www.dns-checker.com/dns/new.chenabgrw.edu.pk to see if they have been updated. THEN your browser cache or Network might be showing you out-dated info. Clearing your browser cache and or restarting your network can help.
If you have any issues updating your domains DNS, you'll want to reach out to the provider where you manage your domain's DNS.

I've a running Django app served on Google App Engine standard under a custom domain: mysite.com.
My site was running pretty well for days but suddenly it stopped serving content using the custom domain.
In summary:
www.mysite.com => works
mysite.com => stopped working
There were no changes in either the DNS nor the app deployment.
What I've tried:
First I checked the DNS lookup for these names:
a) nslookup my-app.appspot.com <== the GAE canonical site name
b) nslookup mysite.com <== custom domain FAILING, ip resolved
c) nslookup www.mysite.com <== custom domain working, ip resolved
d) nslookup ghs.googlehosted.com <== the recommended GAE DNS entry for www subdomain
Surprisingly not only all the names are resolved correctly but also they map to different IP addresses.
Actually, c) and d) map to the same IP (as expected). Anyway its not a DNS problem as stated here.
Second, I checked GAE settings to see the custom domain and tried to add another domain: mysite.com. But it claimed it was already mapped.
Third, according to this answer:
- I deleted the naked domain mapping and re-added later.
Fourth, I've checked documentation and don't find any missing thing in my setup:
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/mapping-custom-domains?hl=en#top_of_page
Both naked (mysite.com) and 'www.mysite.com' custom domains were working for days!
The current behavior is a bit weird. Running:
wget mysite.com
Produces:
Connecting to mysite.com (mysite.com)|xxx.yyy.zzz.ddd|:443... connected
Then it hangs for a while and ends with Unable to establish SSL connection.
The same happens using the web browser.
Anyone facing the same problem?
Any help is appreciated.
In case it is useful for someone else:
The problem has gone away suddenly, after an hour or so.
The only change I am aware of is to delete and register again the mysite.com custom domain entry in the GAE Web cloud console.
The naked domain is now working perfectly.

I own a domain for a website (let's just use "X.com"), which for now I'm hosting on my home computer. This domain name points to my dynamic dns (x.ddns.net) name in the web forwarding of the domain name registrar as I have a dynamic ip and I haven't yet found a better way to make sure that the IP is consistently updated.
I recently changed the ddns address (y.ddns.net) and now whenever I try to access my site either from accessing the main domain name (x.com), or via typing in the local lan ip (192.168.1.56) I keep getting forwarded back to my original ddns address (x.ddns.net) and the website won't load.
I've looked through all the settings I can find both locally, with the ddns provider and with the (x.com) registrar to try to pin point where the forward takes place but I'm totally stuck.
Host system is Ubuntu, everything is up-to-date, nothing in /etc/hosts file pointing to the old ddns.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Try DDNS on Cloudflare
Only problem is that you need to move your domain to cloudflare dns servers which is totally free to use.
I would like to know how do CDNs serve private data - images / videos. I came across this stackoverflow answer but this seems to be Amazon CloudFront specific answer.
As a popular example case lets say the problem in question is serving contents inside of facebook. So there is access controlled stuff at an individual user level and also at a group of users level. Besides, there is some publicly accessible data.
All logic of what can be served to whom resides on the server!
The first request to CDN will go to application server and gets validated for access rights. But there is a catch - keep this in mind:
Assume that first request is successful and after that, anyone will be able to access the image with that CDN URL. I tested this with Facebook user uploaded restricted image and it was accessible with the CDN URL by others too even after me logging out. So, the image will be accessible till the CDN cache expiry time.
I believe this should work - all requests first come to the main application server. After determining whether access is allowed or not, a redirect to the CDN server or access-denied error can be shown.
Each CDN working differently, so unless you specify which CDN you are looking for its hard to tell.
For several years I had custom domain working for my app on google apps. A year ago they changed the way data is stored forcing me to move to a different application name. Since then I have been unable to map the custom domain to my new google app.
Google developers console shows that I have added the 4 A records and the 4 AAAA records they ask for
I also added a CName record and when I ping www.erlandanderson.com it shows ghs,googlehosted.com
When I hit the naked domain I get ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED. When I hit the domain prefixed with www I get a 404 error.
the site can be accessed as http://erland-anderson2.appspot.com/ and it works.
Any bright ideas
You should make sure your domain is 'verified domain' with web-master tools. Then, you need to map both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses because parts of AppEngine is running on IPv6 and you cannot control it. Last comes the CNAME mapping of your app URI to ghs.googlehosted.com Once these three things are correct, you will be able to access your app over a custom domain.
i just took a look at your dns records (erlandanderson.com i presume). These are my findings:
You have a cname set up for your www subdomain, so that should work as long as you have "www.erlandanderson.com" setup as domain in your developers console
I cannot see the A or AAAA records on your bare domain
I see that you have the A and AAAA records for the wildcard (*) in your dns settings. Meaning everything except www (since it has a different config) is correctly configured. Note that there is a difference between *.youdomain.com and yourdomain.com. If you want to configure the latter you usually leave the subdomain part empty or put an '#' instead. So....
You need to add the A and AAAA records for the # entry in your dns configuration.
Hello to everybody after all correct configurations as I followed at the "Documentation of Google Cloud Storage - Configuring a Bucket as a Static Website" my bucket it work as a website but the problem is about the prefix WWW in fact when I visit the bucket http://www.pieropretti.net I can see the content of the public bucket, but if I visit (from the browser Chromium version 42.0.2281.0 (64-bit) and same problem from the browser FirefoxESR 31.4.0 (Tor Browser 4.0.3) without the prefix WWW I receive the error server not found. This is the screenshot of the domain name DNS configuration in the picture here http://tinyurl.com/ncoc9y5
"www.pieropretti.net" and "pieropretti.net" are different domain names, and thus also correspond with different buckets. If you want to serve content from "pieropretti.net", you will need to create a bucket named exactly "pieropretti.net" in the same way you created the "www.pieropretti.net" bucket.
From what I can see, the DNS setting for "pieropretti.net." doesn't seem to have a CNAME, despite what your panel is telling you. Perhaps it just hasn't propagated to me yet.
From DNS records I notice that you are on OVH, if it is you can use the OVH Redirection Technology to redirect from naked to WWW.
If you are on other maintainers don't worry all offers service like OVH for redirect the naked to the www.
For top-level domain name we can't add CNAME, we can add A record, so I goto my Terminal and ping c.storage.googleapi.com to get the IP address, then I use the IP address to add into the A record, it works for me, just not sure whether it's an appropriate way to do it this way or not, but it just works for me.
