I set up my A records over the weekend, but I have no idea if I've done it right or not.
I set up an IP in AWS:
But I still can't reach my site:
http://huntingcollective.net/
http://www.huntingcollective.net/
What am I doing wrong? Thoughts?
So after guidance from Martheen, I did some more research and I just didn't know what I was doing.
The correct way to set up a DNS record at Namecheap, is to use the # symbol for your A-record.

I've been trying to follow instructions from Google on Replicating data from SQL Server to BigQuery available here: https://cloud.google.com/data-fusion/docs/tutorials/replicating-data/sqlserver-to-bigquery. Following instructions to the letter step by step always results in this odd error when creating the Cloud Fusion instance
Invalid argument (HTTP 400): retry budget exhausted (3 attempts): cloud-control2-saas::GCE_BAD_REQUEST: Invalid value for field 'networkPeering.name': '*******'. Must be a match of regex '(?:[a-z](?:[-a-z0-9]{0,61}[a-z0-9])?)'.
**** is the project ID with the VPC network suffix after a dash and it looks a bit like this (I've changed values)
website.com:api-project-0000000000-default
This value is being assigned somewhere by Google, I am not given a choice to select this or enter this through the instructions when creating the Instance.
Googling the error doesn't show me anything useful and sadly I do not have budget to acquire GCP support in this instance to try and ask them why their instruction appear not to work.
I've already checked quotas, billing, service account permissions, etc. I've also tried both a new VPC as well as a shared VPC with all the settings from the guide.
Would appreciate someone more experienced in this area maybe point me in the right direction or if someone has some sort of understanding of where else to check what could be wrong I would appreciate it.
Instructions do point at creating a peering connection but the instructions themselves require the Cloud Data Fusion Instance to be created before configuring the peering connection and since I can't create the Cloud Data Fusion Instance I am unsure on what exactly I am supposed to do.
Appreciate the help!
According to this documentation, before creating a private instance I assume you're creating a VPC network.
networkPeering.name is a combination of your Project-id and VPC-network. The error which you're getting is due to incorrect naming convention of networkPeeering name. ie. the value of networkPeering.name does not match the regex expression (?:[a-z](?:[-a-z0-9]{0,61}[a-z0-9])?), which in your case is due to the project-ID: website.com:api-project-xxxxxxxxx.
Also note that networkPeering name should be less than 63 characters in length as per the regex expression.
After transferring a domain from another registrar to AWS, I can't get it verified in the Certificate Manager. I created a hosted zone, the CNAME records created by the Certificate Manager are there, I tried with the DNS tester - the records seem good. However it still says "pending validation". I tried a few times, waited a couple of days and it doesn't seem it will work.
I'm totally out of ideas, any help?
DNS validation require 2 things to be setup correctly. Record Name and Record Value
Check if you're correctly setting these in Route53. Reference Doc here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/acm/latest/userguide/dns-validation.html
Now 2 issues which are very common
In the Record Name part confirm that you're not adding your domain name in the value. _X is the only part you have to copy-paste. If you copy _X.YourDomain then 'YourDomain' part is duplicated
Record Value ends with . (a period / dot). Don't remove that period
You can verify the settings from https://mxtoolbox.com/ it has various configurations like A record, CNAME, DNS Validation, etc.
I want a webpage listing all the Records in a hosted zone from AWS Route 53 and use all the operations like Search, Add and Edit on those records.
Till now, I am able to list all the records using list_resource_record_sets(), also able to Add and Edit a record
using change_resource_record_sets().
But the problem is with searching. I am not able to find any parameter or function for Searching through all the records and get all matching results. The searching should be like it is in AWS console.
How to implement this searching part?
you already found it. It's the list_resource_records_sets
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/APIReference/API_ListResourceRecordSets.html
or boto:
https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/route53.html#Route53.Client.list_resource_record_sets
you can pass in additional arguments that narrow down what you are listing. Thisis what the console does.
response = client.list_resource_record_sets(
HostedZoneId='string',
StartRecordName='string',
StartRecordType='SOA'|'A'|'TXT'|'NS'|'CNAME'|'MX'|'NAPTR'|'PTR'|'SRV'|'SPF'|'AAAA'|'CAA'|'DS',
StartRecordIdentifier='string',
MaxItems='string'
)
In the image are my current Hosted zone details on AWS. When I visit www.giftforhilt.com it works but when I visit giftforhilt.com it does not work.
How can I fix this?
Can you add another A record using the record name giftforhit.com, the same way that you have done for www.giftforhit.com. just now use without www. And one thing is better when you give the ttl(time to leave) 60 where you did 3600. Then, lets see what happens.
I'm doing my best to follow GSuite's out of date instructions for routing emails to Gmail via a AWS Route 53 hosted zone (i.e. domain). Here are the outdated instructions:
I set the Values as instructed:
And I see:
Error occurred
Bad request.
(InvalidChangeBatch 400: MXRRDATANotTwoFields (MX record doesn't have 2 fields) encountered with '')
So it will not allow me to create the records.
I had this problem with the new AWS console, but it turns out the problem was me. I had not read the instructions carefully enough.
There needed to be a numeric value (not explained) before the domain name or ip address in the value input. When I added the number, this worked for me in the new console.
I was able to reproduce this exact scenario when I used the new AWS Route 53 interface.
To resolve it I selected the use the old console. link from the top.
I then pasted the values below and it worked.
1 aspmx.l.google.com.
5 alt1.aspmx.l.google.com.
5 alt2.aspmx.l.google.com.
10 alt3.aspmx.l.google.com.
10 alt4.aspmx.l.google.com.
For now use the old console for doing this would be my suggestion.
You need to enter more than one value. This is working fine
There's something wrong with the new Route 53 console. I tried the exact same things in the old console and it worked immediately.
I hope AWS fix this soon. For anyone experiencing this issue in the mean time, try simply reverting to the old console by clicking the link on the left hand panel:
So actually what MX record consists of is a priority and a host. The smaller the number the higher the priority. You can look it up on google as well.
It appears that the cause of the problem is the nature or length of the whitespace between the priority and the host on each line. Reducing all this whitespace - on each line - down to a single space resolved the matter for me.
This seem to worked for me in Route 53
