Cannot access website by domain sometimes for few hours

Posted on July 1, 2019

Hello!

I created a droplet with Plesk an installed WordPress.

My site is “http://dev.hkbabymap.com

I changed Domain DNS to Digital Ocean and created some new A records:

dev.hkbabymap.com” to “178.128.82.233”

We can access to the site with the domain most of the time. Yet, whenever we edit the Wordpress site like adding new entry of record, the 404 error happens randomly sometimes. Then, we cannot access the site again for around 1 to 2 hours.

Has anyone ever had anything like this? Thanks.

Here is the error log with “~# tail -100 /var/log/nginx/error.log”

Hello,

Are you still experiencing the issue? The website loads fine at the moment.

I would suggest checking a few things:

  • Clear your website cache after each change
  • If you are using a service like Varnish, make sure to clear the Varnish cache as well
  • Make sure that your DNS is setup correctly

Hope that this helps! Bobby
