After DNS Change from ip to domain, site doesn't load

Posted on March 14, 2018

Hello,

I was setting up my website https://criarh.com.br/ on my new droplet for WordPress on my IP, when I finished, promptly I created a CNAME record and changed the DNS on my register.

Thing is, now my ip and my domain are not loading, they just show me the error ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT.

What should I do? DNS already propagated and Mxtoolbox says my DNS is set up correctly.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks,

Best Lucas

Are you able to access your Droplet via its IP address? Double check that your DNS records contain the correct IP address. Looking up your domain name, the IP address associated with it isn’t responding to ping or HTTP requests.

everything great now kamaln7, thanks!

yes, it is an issue, whenever changing any domain name server or hosting related terminal, you may find some big bugs such as not loading, disappearing, site down or sometimes 404 errors in complete disappearance of your site. I may recommend consulting with a web design service just before doing anything like that.
