This site can’t be reached added domain

[russianx]

I attached domain russianmichigan.ml to russianmichigan.x10host.com and its not working.

I have set up the NS correctly in domain settings. And added domain in DirectAdmin.

In other forums, you MUST use search, and if you see similar thread, post it there, to save space. And not create same thread with same problem. If you dont, you get banned. So, some people use to that rule. FYI

Start with removing ns3 and ns4, they may be confusing the domain lookup as we only have two nameservers

Under normal support needs it may work perfectly well, but right now there's a lot more going on then normally. And some actually bumps up threads that are several years old.

i had it without 3 an 4. i just added them yesterday out of desperation. So its been with 2 for few days prior.

hey, better for me to start new thread. easier. force of habit i guess.

 

[Anna]

Yeah, I get where the idea comes from to reply others.

Once the extra ones are removed it'll be easier to figure out where the issue is, every change to dns actually delays propagation.

 

[russianx]

removed them. same

 

[Anna]

The removal resets propagation, although usually fast.

I have dug around on our servers and everything looks right regarding dns values and all that, so right now I'm a bit at loss. Will check again in a little bit in case it is just very slow propagation for some reason.

By checking this site (https://www.whatsmydns.net/#NS/russianmichigan.ml) that detects propagation it appears to be related to that however, and that is not something we can change. Have you tried contacting the registrar to see if the problem may be their end?

Optionally, you could use the resgistrars nameservers and set an A record to the following IP: 198.91.81.12

 

[russianx]

https://www.whatsmydns.net/#NS/russianmichigan.ml been like that for few days now. i will set the A and see.

 

[russianx]

i have changed A and it works. now, should i live it like that for good? or change NS later?

 

[Anna]

It's not an issue to use an A record, it works just fine for the long run.

As you set the domain as a pointer domain and not a separate domain you won't be able to attach any subdomain or email accounts so no additional dns records would actually be needed.

Yea, not planning on using subs. I read you already explained to the other guy about that earlier. Like I said, I use search. It does help.

But some .png pictures not showing up. like in BBcode. And few others that have no direct domain, just "../images/img.png". But others from same folder ../images/other.png are showing up.

Not sure if its hosting related, cause I havent touched the script in a few weeks, and it was working before.

image is there. where am i wrong on the path here?

http://russianmichigan.ml/home/russ...tml/templates/skin/premium/images/search2.png

this is how file path have been:
$config['path']['root']['server'] = '/home/russian7/public_html';

Maybe now it changed?

I doubt this is host related. (even though they changed the control panel etc)
if you made changes while we had cpanel they may or may not work.
usually requiring you to make a few manual changes later on.

just by looking at the path you used ... it is wrong.
Your calling on your website path 2 times instead of just once.

if your calling a direct path to the image it should be like
/domains/your-user-name/public_html/templates/skin/premium/images/search2.png

when you call on by website url it should be like:
http://russianmichigan.ml/templates/skin/premium/images/search2.png

hope thats helpful.

yes, the absolute path has changed. Try with:
$config['path']['root']['server'] = '/home/russian7/domains/russianmichigan.x10host.com/public_html';

You got the path part a bit wrong, the form is /home/username/domains/the_domain.com/public_html

 

[russianx]

$config['path']['root']['server'] = '/home/russian7/public_html'; This one works just fine. If it wasnt, the site will not open at all, so it is getting to the /engine/ folder just fine. But not to the images for some reason. 777 is on, still nothing

 

[russianx]

Anna, I changed it the way you said, well actually i did it like that before but forgot to clear cache.

Anyway, it works now. Thanks guys. Update other folks on path changes.

this helps too
<?php
echo __FILE__;
?>
