Hi,

I have purchased domain from Godaddy. How can I set name servers to point my application for that domain?

Please let me know how can I map URL with server’s IP address.

thanks, Prashant

First of all You need to setup DNS records as mentioned in the previous answer. <br>If You are new to DO, and it’s seems to complicated for You, <br>You have ability to point Your domain name to the DO IP address. ie. create A / CNAME records matching Your domain name / IP address in the GoDaddy DNS pannel. <br> <br>Next thing You have to do is to configure apache daemon (I assume that You are talking about web applications), so the server can understand when it receives requests from Your doamin name, and it must know where to point that request to. (path where you web application is stored) /etc/hhtpd/conf/httpd.conf

Do you really have a third NS server ?

I am facing below error!!!

Missing nameservers reported by parent FAIL: The following nameservers are listed at your nameservers as nameservers for your domain, but are not listed at the parent nameservers (see RFC2181 5.4.1). You need to make sure that these nameservers are working.If they are not working ok, you may have problems! ns3.digitalocean.com

Set your domain’s name servers to

ns1.digitalocean.com ns2.digitalocean.com ns3.digitalocean.com

On the digital ocean control panel, under DNS, add domain.
