iain44s Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 any help with the following would be greatly appreciated....i have put a wee webpage up on my free ntl webspace, but am having trouble redirecting my domain name to the ntl page. when i go to the direct link http://homepage.ntlworld.com/blahblahblah the page displays no problem.i own the domain www.iainthomson.co.uk and i have entered my ntl homepage address in the web forwarding section of my domain control panel, yet when i go to the link www.iainthomson.co.uk it still keeps redirecting me to the 123reg homepage(the people i bought the domain from.)anyone got any ideas?? i am a total novice at this stuff im afraid.cheers,Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spellchecker Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 perhaps they haven't updated their database yet.doing a manual request by hand gives a clue about a vhost not being setup (meaning their webserver isn't aware of a redirect for your domain):------------paul@fastpc ~ $ telnet www.iainthomson.co.uk 80Trying 195.224.48.69...Connected to www.iainthomson.co.uk.Escape character is '^]'.GET / HTTP/1.0Server: http://www.iainthomson.co.ukHTTP/1.1 200 OKDate: Sat, 01 Apr 2006 23:25:52 GMTServer: Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) (Red-Hat/Linux) FrontPage/5.0.2.2510Last-Modified: Mon, 24 Mar 2003 16:19:12 GMTETag: "3e808-d0-3e7f3000"Accept-Ranges: bytesContent-Length: 208Connection: closeContent-Type: text/html<html> <head> <title>No vhost here</title> <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://www.123-reg.co.uk/"> </head> <body>You should be <a href="http://www.123-reg.co.uk/">here</a></body></html>Connection closed by foreign host.------------most domain placies update every 3,6 or 12 hours. check again in the morning, if it still ain't working, send tech support an email.
