Server not found

Hello,

I have just created a new app with Django.

But I can't access from my browser to

http://www.acovas.webservice.com/

or

http://www.acovas.webservice.com/ICD

where ICD is my app name.

Is there a delay or something wrong ?

Best regards,

www.acovas.webservice.com has no DNS record, so there's no way for your browser to find the site. Have a look at the help page

Ok, thank you.

I can avoid using DNS with this link so ?

webapp-242152.pythonanywhere.com

But even that link does't work :

I have this page

"Coming Soon!

This is going to be another great website hosted by PythonAnywhere. ..."

webapp-242152.pythonanywhere.com is not a link. It's a pointer to be used for DNS lookups, not for accessing a site. If you want a custom domain on PythonAnywhere, you need to configure your DNS correctly. Have a look at the help page

Thank you.

So, I have subscribed a domain name with gandi.net.

Then, I have changed the "file zone" of the corresponding domain name :

www 10800 IN CNAME webapp-242152.pythonanywhere.com.

That it ?

regards

That should do it.
