Sim Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Id like to note that his domain and hosting is with GoDaddy. I played with a little bit. I got all the files uploaded to his FTP. For some reason the server isn't found when going to his domain. ;) Quote
skooda Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 He might not have the dns setup up right Quote
Spudinski Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Common DNS problems and diagnosis: 1. DNS is not relayed to local servers yet. This is very common when first registering and/or updating a domain name, and is though there is nothing you can really do to speed it up there are a few things you can try. a) Use Google Public DNS: http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/ b) Edit your hosts/resolv file to point to the server IP. And refresh cache 2. DNS isn't setup correctly This is somewhat harder to diagnose and repair, as there are a number of things that could be wrong. a) nslookup/dig domain.com, if you're using dig, search for an A record, else with nslookup specify a nameserver(eg. ns1.host.com). b) Use commercial tools like DNSStuff to give a status report. These are just a few things that could be happening, and a few solutions for them. Quote
