Earlier today I upgraded my account so I can use a custom domain. I have created the new domain CNAME record and updated my PythonAnywhere web server with the new domain name. I understand this may take 24 hours before I can access via the new domain name.

My question is should I be able to visit my site directly as noted above? I currently have a Django wepabb installed and running however all I see at "http://webapp-xxxxxx.pythonanywhere.com/" is the Coming Soon screen.

I had expected to be able to see my webapp running by visiting the direct link above.

Thanks

No, you can't access your web app using this address. You can check the DNS propagation on several online services like WhatsMyDns -- use this link with replacing <your-domain-here> appropriately: https://www.whatsmydns.net/#CNAME/<your-domain-here>

Ok, very good, thank you.
