My website is not accessible from my ip

My website is not accessible from my ip address 89.149.86.143, But works fine via VPN or other local IP.
Chrome returns: DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN
I’ve read that this is connected to DNS.
I use only DNS on Cloudflare, no other service is active.

Is there a way to see if there is something that blacklisted my ip on Cloudflare or if this error is indeed coming from Cloudflare or something else?

Thanks,

Roman.

That would suggest a DNS issue, which is either propagation related or your local DNS server blocks your domain for some reason.

What’s the domain?

It’s dancelifemap.com

Records are in place and it loads fine → sitemeer.com/#dancelifemap.com

Can you provide the output of these commands?

ping dancelifemap.com
ping www.dancelifemap.com
nslookup dancelifemap.com
nslookup www.dancelifemap.com

I know it loads fine, but not from my IP. Maybe someone else could have the same problem, I’m just not aware of it. My IP is affected for sure. And the funny thing, is that I check it regularly and so sometimes it may get back online for a minute or so, and then go’s back offline. No idea what to make of it. It’s been like that today all day.

You are resolving the correct IP address. Ping also worked, even if the second nslookup did not work.
So you shouldn’t really get a DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN.

You could switch the local nameservers over to some of those Public recursive name server - Wikipedia but that won’t necessarily fix it, as it does not seem to be DNS related in the first place.

Also try a different browser and/or clear your browser cache. But I am afraid the issue itself is not Cloudflare related.

Thank you for your help Sandro, unfortunately I’m not sure I understand what to do with it. Clearing browser cache or changing devices, restarting Wifi router does not help. Only VPN worked so far.

Well, it’s not a DNS issue as you clearly resolve the correct address (except for your second nslookup). Considering that your server does not respond to a ping at all, I can’t tell if you don’t get an error because your ISP blocked the IP address or for some other issue.

What does this command return?

tracert www.dancelifemap.com

The other thing you could try is to actually proxy that record. If it is an issue with the IP address that would reroute you to the proxies.

Unable to resolve target system name www.dancelifemap.com.

I also have other websites on that server, their dns is also configured via Cloudflare, but they load normally as always. So I don’t think my ISP blocked the ip, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to connect to other websites.

Then you seem to have intermittent resolution issues. In that case switch the local DNS server as mentioned before.

Not sure I understand what you mean by “switch the local DNS server”. Can you elaborate please, I’m not very familiar with this topic. Thank you.

You need to change your local DNS server on your computer (or on the router).

There are plenty to choose from (my earlier link has a full list). For example Yandex at dns.yandex.com.

But generally speaking, this is now a bit beyond the scope of the forum here and better discussed in a forum dedicated to e.g. Windows. For example superuser.com.

Thank you so much for your help. Changing DNS on my PC did the work, I was not aware about these settings before :slight_smile:

I did a check for Blacklist and your site is black listed. See screenshot

That’s a different issue though and not related to resolution.
