Adding DNS to the droplet and changing nameserver in namecheap

Posted on November 14, 2022
Apache Cloud education Deployment DNS Ruby on Rails Ubuntu 22.04
Asked by Kenneth-joseph

As I was following the tutorial Point to DigitalOcean Nameservers From Common Domain Registrars I did all the expected changes on both the digital ocean droplet dashboard and updated the nameservers in the Namecheap domain management section as shown in the tutorial. But until now I can’t seem to be in a position to access my website through the domain name even though I can access it through the server’s IP address. Kindly advise on what I could be during wrong, it’s urgent and I would greatly appreciate any assistance.

I’m on ubuntu, using Apache2 and Phusion passenger to facilitate this process in a ruby digital ocean droplet.

VH:


        ServerAdmin info@financialshub.info
        ServerName financialshub.info
        ServerAlias www.financialshub.info
        DocumentRoot /var/www/financehubcode/FinanceHub1/public

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
