Hello..

Im trying to setup CNAME with Hestia..

lets say domain123.tld is on HestiaCP and findlink.com is on namecheap DNS manager..

Now if link findlink.com —> domain123.tld that’s on HestiaCP it just shows the
“Success! Your new web server is ready to use.“ message?? but if findlink.com —> google.com it loads? noticed any domain on HestiaCP it just wont load.. just give the success message?

I even updated HastiaCP to latest version still same? is there anyway to fix this?

Hi,

You shouldn’t use domains that don’t belong to you, instead use example.com, example.net or example.org.

I don’t know what you mean by “link,” but a CNAME record is a DNS entry that makes one domain name act as an alias for another domain name, so it ultimately resolves to the IP address of the target domain.

Regarding DNS issues, using the actual domain name helps avoid misunderstandings.

What are you trying to achieve?

Have a Web App that works like this:

lets use domain “example.com”

So to access the user “View Point” (88Iu41) the webapp will use .htaccess with router.php and give viewing access to user using example.com/88Iu41 or if alias subdomain is enabled it will link to 88lu41.example.com and if user have custom domain in their setting lets say custom domain is “viewer.com” it will link:

viewer.com –> 88lu41.example.com that’s actually “example.com/88Iu41” direct path

but if user doesn’t have a custom domain enabled it will give error warning “No Domain Set”

it only give access to viewer.com “cname” with that viewing access path if enabled with domain.

I have wildcard alias the domain *.example.com so it use what ever example/ viewpoint it gets , that works 100%. But custom domain doesn’t work! but if i set manually the “viewer.com” as alias in the example.com ,only then it works 100%

Notice if its not in the alias of example.com it will not load/work at all just the success message.

But that’s cause its in the alias of the domain example.com. is there a way not to put it in alias of domain and it only loads once its enabled in WebApp or else give error page?
