I have a new domain for an online store which I am trying to map to a certain web server(launchsplash_com) for just their Launch Page to show up as homepage when my website is accessed (the ecommerce software has its own default homepage, which I prefer not to show up). The registrar for the domain is Godaddy but hosting is done with a different company - Server Intellect.
The issue is mapping my domain to Launchsplash's server does not seem to work. And I am not sure if I am doing the right settings through the host control panel. As per LaunchSplash company's instruction - I create a CNAME record name - www_mydomainname_com and CNAME record data - mydomainname_LaunchSplash_com
Since the domain is not being hosted with Godaddy, the total dns control for making dns changes is disabled in godaddy control panel.
I do not wish to do the forwarding option, since that shows up the forwarded domain name.
If you want to use several domains for your single website, from SEO-reasons or from any other reasons (which?) is it better to forward your domain to that sub-domain or should it be mapped in the DNS in CNAME?
It's not the same issue like with Google Apps, whether you should use your own domain, e.g. sites.yourdomain.com or whether you should use the domain offered by Google for your Sites. The reason is that theotherdomain.com is a part of the single website called yourdomain.com, thus, it is not an external website hosted somewhere else.
i currently have a site on a .co.uk domain. my client would like the "main" domain to be .com instead. I should add that BOTH .com and .co.uk will be used.
The company is advertising itself as thesite.com, so people will associate the business with www.thesite.com, not .co.uk.
I have both domains, and I understand domain mapping is used for this purpose, but before I go and screw up anything, could someone please clarify.
Is it possible to "domain map" so that visitors go to www.thesite.com, they will see the website as .com, but the site itself will actually be on the ".co.uk" server.
I don't particuarly want to transfer the site from the .co.uk to the .com and set up a redirect.
I know I could use a redirect .com to .co.uk, but the client specifically wants ".com" to be the site visitors view. (they bought .co.uk and set the site up first, just to be annoying)
I already mapped my IP address to a domain but when I tried to access http://myipaddress it still show the LX Admin Default page instead of my site. How can i fix that?
I used to have a server which had domain mapping via wordpress... a friend of mine had this up for me and every time I added a new website to the same server/ip-address, I just modified the .htaccess for example:
Im setting up a few servers under one domain name and am in need of a external DNS service provider. Does anyone have any suggestions on who I should go with?
Can I have a primary domain - www.sample.com - point to another primary domain - www.sample.asn.au - but then have the entry point for that domain be a subdomain - www.ccc.example.com?
If the primary domain is parked somewhere else, doesn't it mean that all the subdomains will be too? Or do I use a 301 on the primary domain to the .asn.au site? But does that then redirect all the subdomains too?
Let's say my domain, for which I have shared hosting, is www.mydomain.com
I have also registered the domain www.yourdomain.com
My hosting has cPanel
I add www.yourdomain.com as an add-on domain.
Inside my root folder the folder /public_html/yourdomain/ is created.
When I create the subdomain subdomain.yourdomain.com, the folder /public_html/subdomain/ is created instead of /public_html/yourdomain/subdomain/
Can I assign the /public_html/yourdomain/subdomain/ folder to be the root of subdomain.yourdomain.com? e.g. I have the file image.jpg at /public_html/yourdomain/subdomain/image.jpg and it's accessed from subdomain.yourdomain.com/image.jpg
Is this possible?
Having a lot of folders directly under /public_html/ would get annoying for me.
I have 2 domains ie. red.com blue.com. They are both on seperate servers. I want red.com to be a subdomain for blue.com. I went ahead and created an A host for red.blue.com, I then created a virtualhost and everything is working, I can pull up red.blue.com and it pulls up the same data if I were to go to red.com.
Here is my issue. I want to have red.com pull up red.blue.com by default so blue.com gets credit for traffic, I am moving red.com and moving it all into blue.com. Hopefully this makes sense. Also, I want to make sure nothing breaks my current search engine results.
I have configured Apache+Tomcat on Linux server. I have configured 50+ domains not problem is that sometime when i configure new domain and restart the service and access the url http://domain.com i get following error ----->
HTTP Status 404 - /
type Status report
message /
description The requested resource (/) is not available.
but when i access same url with file like [url]i able to access that url and working fine. same problem for subdomain also [url]same error but [url]is working so can anyone tell me what is the exact problem and how to solve this problem.
Note:- Other domains are working fine this problem is only with 2-3 domains and subdomain and secondly i have also set DirectoryIndex index.html index.jsp index.php
Please check my server.xml and httpd.conf ------->
I am a bit confused about domain and sub-domain setup for my website.
I have Wordpress and VBulletin Forum on my website like this:
/www/mywebsite/wordpress /www/mywebsite/vbulletin
Right now, my domain points to this folder: [url]
I have a .htaccess file there which redirects it to the wordpress folder i.e. Redirect permanent /index.php http://www.mywebsite.com/wordpress DirectoryIndex index.php
But, I would like my domain name point directly to the wordpress folder like this: [url]
But the problem when i do that is my "VBulletin" forum get's messed up because then: [url]----------resolves to---------> [url]
I m thinking to resolve this issues, I will have to add a subdomain for forums like this: [url]-> [url]
But I am wondering if I do that, won't it fail again, because it will do this: [url]-----will resolve to-----> [url]
I have a domain name as per my sig. I am also creating a subdomain totally in contrast with that site below. My primary domain has one page on it so i would like to:
a) delete the one page on my primary domain
b) Make the contents of my subdomain my primary domain. e.g my domain is www.info-peep.com, my sub will be example.info-peep.com........i would like to make example.info-peep.com : www.info-peep.com......that make sense, as really the sub will be my main site.
Basically wanting to transfer the contents of my sub to my primary. So when people click info-peep.com, it will be the sub's site. Another thing to note is that i am using RVsitebuilder (WYSIWYG) that my web host provides. Also BEAR IN MIND the WYSIWYG editor does not allow me to move pages (sucks) or to copy the page contents.
