Hi - Is there any update on this?

Matt - it looks like this hasn't been added by Lihua. Could you send the request please?

Sorry for the delay on this. just put in the request

From Lihua:

"Hi Matt,

Based on DNS lookup, there is no A record or CNAME set up for slublog.org yet:

https://network-tools.com/nslook/Default.asp?domain=slublog.org&type=255&server=8.8.8.8&class=1&port=53&timeout=5000&go.x=18&go.y=14

We cannot set up SSL until there is an A or CNAME record for the domain.

Thanks,
Lihua"

The DNS entry is for www, ie www.slublog.org. In accordance with the recent discussion with Lihua, there should be an @ entry that covers slublog.org (no subdomain), with subdomains like www. directed to slublog.org via redirects rather than DNS entries.

Hi Boone - Leah has now created a "@" cname record and deleted the "www" cname record. Can you see if it's ok?

Also, since it is a switchover - does she need to remove the cname record on murphyinstituteblog.org?

Hi Boone and Scott -- response from Lihua:

"Hi Matt,

the ssl cert for slublog.org has been generated and mapping has been completed at the server level.

Please ask Boone to map the external domain to the commons site.

Please ask the user to redirect murphyinstituteblog.org to slublog.org so that we can remove mapping for the old domain.

Thanks,
Lihua"

Thanks Boone - I have let Leah know.

She has created the redirect. Apparently there was not a CNAME record but instead an "A" record. I have ask her to delete that one.

Just to confirm, when she is making changes to the site, she should go to http://murphyinstituteblog.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ ?
