www redirect

Posted: Tue Aug 23, 2011 2:42 pm Post subject: www redirect

I'm currently in the process of setting up a website for a friend and have purchased hosting with nethosted.

http://www.annayassarwedding.com/

I have other sites hosted here and have had no problems like this with them. However, the difference being that the others have domains managed by nethosted. This one has a domain managed by another company before I got involved. I have already updated the primary and secondary nameservers to point at nethosted.

My question is therefore this, how can I get the non-www:

http://annayassarwedding.com/

(which results in a "bad request invalid hostname" error) to redirect to the www one:

http://www.annayassarwedding.com/

Thanks.

Hi,

This is simply due to your DNS change not having fully propagated yet, your local DNS servers must have this cached as I have checked and http://annayassarwedding.com/ does redirect to the www as expected here.

Once your DNS cache expires this will be visible for you too, generally this happens within around 6 hours.

Regards,

Darryl

Brilliant, I was hoping it was going to be that simple.

Thanks very much, prompt and easy support from the nethosted guys as usual.
