Question
Non www domain name resolves to www intermittently
My site is www.recipehearth.com, the domain name with the "www" resolves fine every time. If you type in only: recipehearth.com , it will either take you to a blank screen or occasionally it will resolve correctly to http://www.recipehearth.com as it is supposed to.
The fact that the domain recipehearth.com does not resolve correctly to www.recipehearth.com every time is what my problem is.
Setup:
WordPress 3.7.1
LAMP stack (Ubuntu 12.10)
What I've done so far:
-Activated htaccess in Apache (https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-use-the-htaccess-file)
-Reviewed my htaccess file and made sure I am using the standard configuration.
# BEGIN WordPress
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
# END WordPress
Not sure if this matters:
-If you tell it to go to a page/or login such as recipehearth.com/blueberry-sorbet-macarons/ it will go with no issues, even though the www is not in the address.
-My site is not located in /var/www it is in /home/wordpress/public_html
Any thoughts or ideas on what this could be are appreciated!
