How do I migrate my website from Siteground to Digital OCean

Dear @alexdo,

I have followed https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/networking/dns/ and set the below codes in networking-> Domain

A  www.bzbzbees.xyz  	157.230.249.37
NS www.bzbzbees.xyz	ns1.digitalocean.com.
NS www.bzbzbees.xyz	ns2.digitalocean.com.
NS www.bzbzbees.xyz	ns3.digitalocean.com.

Next, I proceed to install wordpress via cPAnel -> Site Software and I have checked DNS zone in cPanel

Name			TTL	Class	Type	Record				Actions
bzbzbees.xyz.		14400	IN	A	157.230.249.37
bzbzbees.xyz.		14400	IN	MX	Priority: 0
						Destination: bzbzbees.xyz
mail.bzbzbees.xyz.	14400	IN	CNAME	bzbzbees.xyz
www.bzbzbees.xyz.	14400	IN	CNAME	bzbzbees.xyz
cpanel.bzbzbees.xyz.	14400	IN	A	157.230.249.37
whm.bzbzbees.xyz.	14400	IN	A	157.230.249.37

However I cant access to wordpress admin, they cant detect my website. This site can’t be reached The webpage at http://bzbzbees.xyz/wordpress/wp-admin might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address. Search Google for bzbzbees xyz wordpress admin ERR_NAME_RESOLUTION_FAILED

Thus Im not sure where did I insert wrongly. I have added Digital Ocean nameserver in domain provider too

Thank you

Hello, @keming18

1. Let me know if you need any help with the cPanel/WHM setup

2. You need to point the A record of your domain name to the IP address of your droplet. If you’re using Digital Ocean’s nameservers, then you need to change the A record from your DO control panel. You can check our official documentation via this link:

https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/networking/dns/

https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/networking/dns/how-to/manage-records/

Basically you need to set the A record to match the IP address of your droplet.

Domain           Type       Content
yourdomain.com   A record    IPaddr

Once the A record is added/changed the DNS will need some time in order to propagate. This might take up to 48 hours due to DNS cache. You can check the DNS propagation using this site:

3. If you’re using cPanel/WHM on your Digital Ocean droplet, you just need to import/restore the Full cPanel backup. There is no need to install WordPress again.

Let me know if you have any questions.
