Question

setting up domain name only works with "domain.com." not "domain.com"

Do I have a config messed up somewhere? I have made a domain before and never had this issue, not sure what I have messed up.

markzeidan.com. works, markzeidan.com does not

it looked like in my namecheap pointer I had the NS1.DIGITALOCEAN.COM in all caps with a period at the end.

Moved it to ns1.digitalocean.com and it worked. My mistake everyone, thanks for the help
