I've a domain, let's say abcd.com, For this domain,

We have a wildcard A record pointing to an IP say, 12.34.56.78,

* => 12.34.56.78

So, all subdomains of abcd.com point to 12.34.56.78. So, when I access small.abcd.com, it points to 12.34.56.78. Then, we added a Cname record for Google domain verification of small.abcd.com,

eocjdrkdkoed.small => gv-f8ded7dfivfkdo.dv.googlehosted.com

For more information on this, go to https://support.google.com/a/answer/47283?hl=en

This caused a DNS error with small.abcd.com. That is, this url small.abcd.com is no longer accessible and it no longer points to 12.34.56.78. On nslookup, it says, "Can't find small.abcd.com: No answer". Can anyone help me with this ? Is it an issue with my DNS provider or is it how DNS records work ?

edit: The domain not working - small57.realizegoal.com. Before, it used to point to xxx.xx.68.191. After adding DNS verification Cname record, it started failing.

  • No, since you chose to hide the information you want help to _publish for all the world to see_, nobody can help you. If you'd told us what domain has the problem, we could have had a look and maybe seen what's wrong. – Calle Dybedahl Jul 21 '17 at 10:25
  • I've mentioned what the domain is. – Hitesh Kumar Jul 25 '17 at 06:38
  • 5 years later I've run into the same issue; added some cnames for domain verification and resolution for the wildcard fails for one of the subdomains that we were using for an ingress. Others still work but at least one fails. @HiteshKumar were you able to solve this? – c0bra May 10 '22 at 19:58
