This seems simple enough, but its not quite working.
I have a website deployed at website.meteor.com and it seems to work just fine.
I have a domain name, website.com with GoDaddy. There's some weird business with the www that I'm unclear about, but it seems I'm "forwarding" website.com to www.website.com. I had no idea there's a difference. Anyways, I think (hope) this is unrelated.
In my Domain, DNS Zone Files, I set the CNAME (alias) to point to website.meteor.com. This didn't work. I get that the meteor website is down. But when I go to website.meteor.com, it seems to be just fine.
I realized that www.website.meteor.com doenst work, so I suspect maybe thats the issue?
In my CNAME (alias), I realized that HOST is www so maybe thats the issue. I deleted that, but then I couldn't save with no host. It says the host is the "subdomain in which the record applies", whatever that means. So I tried putting website there, "Points to" meteor.com. Well that didn't work either.
Hopefully there something very minor I'm messing up here.
OK, I figured it out.
Host: "website"
CNAME: "origin.meteor.com"
Thats not enough though. I've already deployed to website.meteor.com but it doesn't show up.
You then have to mrt deploy www.website.com.

hope you can help me because I'm losing my mind here:
A couple of months ago, I started to build my new website (WordPress, hosted on Google Cloud, deployed with "Click to deploy" and I got the domain name on Google Domains).
Everything worked fine back then. But I needed to put this project on hold.
Now I wanted to continue working on the website, and I realized the VM was stopped. I successfully re-started it and wanted to access the WP back end with the link that can be found in the Deployment Manager of Google Clouds ([IP address]/wp-admin) but it doesn't work anymore. It only says the connection is not private, and I can't access the website. I can't even get to the login form.
What I have tried so far:
Changed ephemeral IP to static external IP & connected the VM to the IP
Pointed Domain toward static external IP - as shown in any tutorial
Updated NS on Google Domains
Created DNS Zones (A, CNAME)
Installed SSL for my domain successfull
Still not working, neither the IP nor the domain (server not found).
My guess - the Domain (mk-studios.net) is not live yet, and therefore, the SSL certification doesn't work yet. If not, I messed something up, and I don't know where to look. I don't get why it worked well months ago and has stopped working now.
Does anyone have a guess? Do you need any further details?
Thank you so much in advance,
Best,
Mario
This problem may have many causes but the most common is that your SSL has NOT installed properly. I suggest you the following steps:
Make sure that your SSL works fine and reinstall your SSL.
If you have access to DB, go to *_options table and in the first two rows siteurl && home you will find your URL. In this point remove the "S" from the https:// and make it http://.
If you have other server take the DB locally an connect with WP files from fresh installation.
Also when you remove the -s from https:// visit your url with incognito mode/private mode.
I will stay here to help you.

I just set up a new Wordpress site in Lightsail using Bitnami. I've created the SSH Tunnel, and can access the site via 127... Everything looks good.
Except, http://127.0.0.1:8888/phpMyAdmin returns a page not found. The 404 page is obviously wrapped in my WP site, so I'm not sure what's missing here.
Appreciate your help!
Never discount PEBCAK errors.... They're always the most difficult to solve.
I forgot that Linux was case sensitive. bans self indefinitely
For anyone wondering, it's changing the phpMyAdmin to phpmyadmin
I'm facing a problem with the following website: https://www.rhythmandstrums.ie/
When I open the "www" version of it: https://www.rhythmandstrums.ie/ I get a bugged website, failing to open stylesheets and possibly other file sources, whereas if I open the website without the "www", everything works as expected: https://rhythmandstrums.ie/
Some considerations:
This website is hosted in a Wordpress Multisite, so it shares the same configuration files as other websites, none of the other websites have this issue. So I was wondering if this could be a problem with redirection, although, again, none of the other websites have this problem and they share the same config files (including server block settings and such, it is in nginx).
I have checked the DNS values and nameservers and everything looks fine (I took base from all the other websites that were set up in the same way, I can post a screenshot if it might be of help).
This error also seems to happen in the Wordpress backend, with the admin dashboard not being able to load parts of plugins, it seems like it is looking where it doesn't exist.
I have replaced instances of the www version of the url in the database, as I do with other websites as well, but that didn't seem to fix the issue.
I have cleared cache a few times (both in the cache plugin and manually in the nginx server - manually deleting the contents of the cache folder), and since this has been going for a long time, I don't know if this is cache related, but any suggestion is highly appreciated. Again, all the configs, included the cache plugin settings are the same for all the other websites in the network, which none are having this issue.
If I inspect the console when I'm accessing both versions of the website, www and non-www it seems like it's trying to pull information from different locations, but I can't figure out why it's doing that.
Guys, I hope this was not confusing, but let me know if you you would like to see screenshots or other info that might be relevant. Thanks so much in advance, I really appreciate it.
Let's say I have domain sxz.me.
Hostname is sxz.me, server is up and running. Unfortunately when I was typing in address sxz.me, it automatically redirected me to IP address 141.xxx.xx.xxx.
My point was to make it as domain name, not IP address. So I changed something in VestaCP that didn't work.
As a next idea, I have installed a plugin, which was redirecting IP address into sxz.me .. It worked! It started redirecting 141.xxx.xx.xxx into sxz.me. The problem was that sxz.me still didn't work e.g. didn't read files uploaded through ftp.
Then I've got genius idea of resetting the server from hosting support. I did it and then for whatever reason WordPress admin panel from 141.xxx.xx.xxx stopped working. I couldn't access it.
I've changed everything in VestaCP in the way described in this video.
Before it was also changed similar, but some parts were missing. We were waiting for DNS propagation and unexpectedly sxz.me started working! Almost there, but problem was that I still couldn't copy files from 141.xxx.xx.xxx by plugin, because of no access to WP admin.
I know there are also different ways, but that was my first idea. In the meantime I've started installing WordPress according to config.php from zero on 141.xxx.xx.xxx and website gone again! It just crashed somehow and started redirecting me once again to 141.xxx.xx.xxx so I'm completely confused and don't know what to do.
Domain doesn't work at all.
so I had recently been messing around with creating domains and such I registered a few and I am having a problem where no matter what the situation, even if apache2 is plain turned off, it redirects to the other domain.
I had installed wordpress on this and I will be the first to admit I was pretty careless, I removed it without much checking and forethought and now it appears to have come back to bite me.
The problem:
When I go to www.example1.com it redirects me to my other domain of www.example2.com. HOWEVER, when I go to www.example3.com it works perfectly fine, same with www.example2.com, it is only when I go to www.example1.com that it always redirects to www.example2.com
This happens regardless of if Apache is running or not.
Furthermore I have reinstalled apache (purged) as well as purged the /var/www directory
I have also been through iptables to see if that is the issue and no dice, I have also checked the dns routing on my host to make sure that I didn't accidentally set up a redirect there and it points at my ip as it should be.
Any help or suggestions of what to do would be greatly appreciated! Thank you
It appear's that due to the way wordpress caches its redirects in the browser cookies I was getting a ghost redirect and there was in fact nothing wrong with the server. Simply had to clear the browser cache
