Broken DNS record

Website, Application, Performance DNS & Network
1

Self-hosted web address returns DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN. The domain status is active and show the correct name servers. Cloudflare shows the status is active, the DNS records are correct. The local servers are operating normally, all the routes are correct. How can I force the DNS record to propagate again or where else should I check for issues?

What is the domain in question?

The domain is tart.ga

I’m afraid this is not correct, the domain does not point to Cloudflare nameservers.

 dig +trace tart.ga

This is probably not a coincidence. The .ga TLD was taken away from Freenom yesterday and “several million domain names will be deleted”.

Thanks for the replies. So, the problem is the domain is no longer mine. Lovely…

To be fair, I don’t think we know if the domains will be returned yet… it’s still two days to go until they stated the domains will be “switched over”.

Could do with a bit of transparency though… I’ve no idea if my domain will be transferred. I’d paid for it until 2030.

Good to know i’m not the only 1 with this issue. I was just puilling my hair out looking for what was wrong…
