Greetings - I’m trying to set up Cloudflare DNS to resolve to a Heroku app. I’m used to traditional hosting so pretty sure I’m missing something in this environment, but not sure what.
That would suggest your Cloudflare setup is correct, but the service does not recognise your domain. You’d also need to configure your domain at their end
Thanks for the link, I’ll read through that but unless I’m way off base the in-browser resolution of the Heroku Alias URL (http://larval-loquat-eg3yuyolanuad5sl826tuppu.herokudns.com/ actually means that the Heroku setup is correct but that the request is never getting there, where gets me back to DNS setup, right ?
Well, considering you do get their default page I’d assume the request does end up with them but - as mentioned before - they dont know what to do with it as that very mapping is missing.
Sorry, not trying to be difficult but I still have to disagree, as pinging MYDOMAIN.COM produces ‘cannot find host’ which can only come from the DNS system not resolving the domain name, right?
Since there are no DNS records on Heroku, unless I’m totally misunderstanding how DNS works in a cloud environment I don’t understand how that can be a Heroku issue.
