Hosting - Inmotion Hosting

[pewiher]

Hello, how are you, good afternoon, I have a problem with the DNS redirection, I made a purchase of a hosting in inmotion hosting, I connected it to my domain provider and everything worked fine, but now I pointed the dns to Cloudflare and it broke, I have tried to add a NS type record in Cloudflare but it still does not redirect the hosting, has someone experienced something similar.

Welcome to the Cloudflare Community.

@pewiher

It broke

Can you describe what that means? Do you encounter any error messages that you can share?

@pewiher

add a NS type record in Cloudflare

You probably should not do that. It is far more likely to cause unexpected problems than whatever you are hoping it will do.

You should consult your InMotion documentation for your site’s IP address and create an A record in your Cloudflare DNS. Don’t forget to delete the NS records you added, too.

Adding DNS Records

This tutorial covers adding general DNS records and specifically A, AAAA, CNAME, MX and TXT records. Go to the DNS app of your Cloudflare dashboard. Enter your credentials and click ‘Log In’ Click the domain in question Click [image] [Please note, the content of the records below are solely for example purposes and should be replaced by valid records with content provided by your web host] Please select which record you need help adding:

A Record

Thank you very much for answering, I detail what I have done:

1.- Buy a domain from provider A
2.- Buy a hosting in inmotionsHosting
3.- Inmotion Hosting gives me an NS record that I must add to my domain provider (A), if I add it there, the web works.
4.- I met Cloudflare, they also give NS records.
5.- Unregister inmotionHosting and add Cloudflare.
6.- In Cloudflare add the NS records, in the DNS section wait 2 days but it doesn’t work, the message “DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN” appears on the web.
7.- Add an A record with the inmotionHosting ip but the message “DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN” still appears.

I don’t know if I’m doing something wrong

As described in my previous reply, you need to remove the InMotion NS records from Cloudflare. You cannot use both InMotion nameservers and Cloudflare. You need to create your DNS records, such as A, MX, etc., in your Cloudflare DNS app.

Hello, if I did that, I deleted the Cloudflare ns records but it still doesn’t do the redirection :(, I created a type A record with the inmotionhosting IP in Cloudflare but it still doesn’t work

Can you share your domain?

Thanks for sharing that. I see ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS when I try to visit the site. Have you looked at the Community #tutorial covering that error? One of the most common solutions is to make sure that your Cloudflare SSL mode is set to Full (Strict).

Community Tip - Fixing ERR TOO MANY REDIRECTS

Error Try the suggestions in this Community Tip to help you fix ERR TOO MANY REDIRECTS. Background If your SSL setting on the SSL/TLS app is Flexible and if your origin server is configured to redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS, server responses back to Cloudflare are encrypted. Since Cloudflare is expecting HTTP traffic, it keeps resending the same request, resulting in a redirect loop. This causes browsers to display “The page isn’t redirecting properly” or “ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS” errors. [D…

Why you should choose Full Strict, and only Full Strict

Unencrypted & unverified connections Imagine you open Paypal and suddenly get that warning [image] Would you continue? Probably not. For decades leaders in IT security have advocated that people upgrade their sites from unencrypted HTTP to secure HTTPS. And for a reason, everything you send via an HTTP connection is sent in plain text and can be intercepted at any point between you and the server. Equally, you’d probably not proceed if you got such a warning, right? [image] That’s when th…

It worked, I didn’t know that I had to configure the ssl in Cloudflare, I really appreciate it, thank you very much for your help :).
