skullys Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Wanting to add ecubasketball.com as add on domain to my primary site skully.com I'm getting this message: "Sorry, a DNS entry for ecubasketball.skully.com already exists". I've added several others in the past with no problem....I would appreciate it if you can help me out with this one?
wolstech Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Check in subdomains and see if that subdomain in the error exists. Remove if found. Then check the advanced DNS editor for an A or CNAME for that subdomain. If its there, delete it. Then add the addon again. If its not in either of those, or still doesn't work afterwards an admin will need to delete it for you.
skullys Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 Thanks for the suggestions, unfortunately I had checked on those earlier. No subdomain listed, Advance DNS editor didn't show any A or CNAME records. Looks like an Admin may need to get rid of the faulty DNS entry.
wolstech Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 This support request is being escalated to our root admin.
Byron Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 How long ago did you delete this sub-domain? ecubasketball.skully.com
skullys Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 I believe it was deleted 10 - 12 hours ago. I attempted a number of times to add the subdomain after experiencing problems but without success. Thanks for looking into this for me!
Byron Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Give it 24 hours before trying to add any sub domains. Right now your http://ecubasketball.skully.com is still working. What you'll probably need to do once the server has restarted tonight is go back and click to add an Addon Domain (ecubasketball.com) and it will re-create the sub-domain for you.
skullys Posted June 24, 2014 Author Posted June 24, 2014 I did as you suggested but I still get the following messages... Addon Domains Message: 1) A DNS entry for the domain, "ecubasketball.com", already exists2) The ftp account "ecubasketball" has been created. Subdomain Creation Message: 1) There was a problem creating the sub-domain: A DNS entry for the domain, "ecubasketball.skully.com", already exists Furthermore... No listing for ecubasketball is shown in either of my addons or subdomain listings, nor is there a "created" ftp account for ecubasketball.com shown. When I open file manager for home/skully/public_html, I see an" ecubasketball" folder as well as an "ecubasketball.com" folder which have been created. When I go the the Advanced DNS Zone Editor, there is an "ecubasketball.skully.com listed in the pull down menu, however when selected, there are no zone records listed. Thanks for any additional help in resolving this issue!
Byron Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 I've changed your password so I could login to your account so don't be alarmed. I'll send you the new password when I'm done. Ok try adding the addon domain now. I've PM'd you the new password.
skullys Posted June 24, 2014 Author Posted June 24, 2014 Thanks, I'll give it a try and let you know what happens. Everything looks good to go! I appreciate your quick response in resolving this....Thanks I will reset my password now as well.
