Changed IP addresses in DNS and it killed on of my CNAME, what am I doing wrong?

Posted May 15, 2014

Hello!

So I had a perfectly fine running DNS record working with both www.domain.com and domain.com.

We made a move for the website to be on an another server so I went on and changed the IP adress in the DNS record. So far, domain.com works fine, but www.domain.com just loads a blank page.

What would be the steps to try and resolve this?

Thanks for the help!

In the future, if you want help with a domain name, try actually mentioning the name…

Seems like there was some delay between the WWW cname record and the regular A record. Can’t really tell why but… It works.

domain.com and www.domain.com both resolve perfectly fine.
