www.domain redirecting to google?
- by aayush
Note: A while back i had no place to host my domain, then via namecheap i set it to forward my domain to google
I bought webhosting again today and everything was working fine. I set up vhosts and set up www.domain as the server alias. Both worked.
Then i tried to set up a alternate subdomain test.domain, but failed (I did it by creating a alternate vhost right below the current one) as it kept redirecting to google. As a test, i replaced the www with test in serveralias, it still redirected to google but now even www redirects to google.
I am using cloudflare, and i am really confused how to go about this. I tried listing www as a cname and as a A record, still redirecting to google. I tried checking via proxies e.t.c, its universal and hence not a problem of my PC.
Please help, i am really distressed by this.
I am running a ubuntu 13.10 x32 stack with LAMP. Here is what my domain.com.conf file looks like
<VirtualHost *:80>
# The ServerName directive sets the request scheme, hostname and port that
# the server uses to identify itself. This is used when creating
# redirection URLs. In the context of virtual hosts, the ServerName
# specifies what hostname must appear in the request's Host: header to
# match this virtual host. For the default virtual host (this file) this
# value is not decisive as it is used as a last resort host regardless.
# However, you must set it for any further virtual host explicitly.
ServerName domain.com
ServerAlias www.domain.com
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www/domain.com/public_html
# Available loglevels: trace8, ..., trace1, debug, info, notice, warn,
# error, crit, alert, emerg.
# It is also possible to configure the loglevel for particular
# modules, e.g.
#LogLevel info ssl:warn
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
# For most configuration files from conf-available/, which are
# enabled or disabled at a global level, it is possible to
# include a line for only one particular virtual host. For example the
# following line enables the CGI configuration for this host only
# after it has been globally disabled with "a2disconf".
#Include conf-available/serve-cgi-bin.conf
</VirtualHost>
There is a valid index.php file at the end of the documentroot aswell.
The website in question is aayushagra.com
Edit: On cloudflare i tried removing the www entirely, and it still sent me to google
