please i need help
@hadji,
My be these checklist, can help you to find the problem:
- If you try just your Host IP on browser (not domainname), can you see LMS side ? if YES,
- Did you configured and pointed your host provider(contabo), to the your Domain name provider ?(Namecheap, Go Daddy etc.) Like this below
if YES
- Did you add A records to your host provider(contabo) ? for example. "studio.yourdomain.com, or minio.yourdomain.com " like this… ?
when i try my ip address , i can’t see any thing(neither lms or cms) .
my host provider (contabo) is pointed to the domain name provider , the response of yhe third question is no
Hi,
If you added your custom DNS values to your domain provider. like this
ns1.contabo.net
ns2.contabo.net
ns3.contabo.net
On your Contabo Control panel/DNS Zone Management / create new zone:
Add your domain name and target IP( your VPS server IP) click create… After that
Add a new resource record (A record)
name : studio ## (leave the others default)
data : your server IP ## than click create record
Add one more for Preview and for your other subdomains if you have like this (minio, discovery, ecommerce etc.)
$ tutor local quickstart ## add your custom domain and subdomains
God Luck!
@qali, i do what you advice me , the lms is working but the studio does not working , i add the record studio in the domain zone management , but it is not working
thank you if you can help me more
@hadji,
That’s good you getting your LMS which is your domain name. I believe you forgot “preview” ? So, you should edit your DNS zone and add a A record
name : preview
data : your IP
Leave the others default and save… Needless to say your studio subdomain must be exactly same in your config.yml file (which you choose after tutor local quickstart)
Please try it again.
hi @qali i configured my dns zone with the same way you configured yours , but the studio doesn’t work .
in the browser i get this massege :
studio.my_host.com ’s server IP address could not be found.
DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN
and when i ping the cms host with terminal i get this massege :
Name or service not known
It’s difficult to see and debug from your side. If you configured right, both Domain provider side, and Contabo, and you can see your LMS it’s should work.
yourdomain.com => your LMS_HOST
preview.yourdomain.com => preview Subdomin
studio.yourdomain.com => your CMS_HOST
Don’t use any dot, period like this (studio.) when you editing DNS zone.
And reboot server, after that try
$ tutor local quickstart
Are there any errors showing up inside your server in regards to the CMS (studio.my_host.com)? Did you check the CMS logs?
tutor local logs --follow cms
