name servers taken a while to update
« on: November 29, 2024, 05:42:16 PM »
Hi

Am trying to add two new domains to my cwp server

i have created two accounts  fixcomputers.co.uk and njt-builders.com.
(others work fine on it for example freddio.co.uk or linuxshed.com - test domains for learning how to use cwp).

updated the name servers to ns1 and ns2.clickns.cloud but the domains don't seem to be updating waited over 3 days for njt-builders.com and a day for fixcomputers.co.uk -you can see its updated on whatsmydns in Pakistan or India but none of the other countries show the name servers updating.

Anything am missing?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks
Dave

Hi,

The DNS propagation process is fully automatic and it could take up to 72 hours to be finished.

According to whatsmydns.net your domains use the nameservers:

ns1.clickns.cloud
ns2.clickns.cloud

So it looks good for me.

Yes, the key is to give it time (24, 48, up to 72 hours) to propagate worldwide. Unless your infrastructure is Cloudflare based, then you will just have to wait seconds for worldwide propagation. :)
