Something is wrong with DNS

What is the name of the domain?

What is the issue you’re encountering

CNAME record is not propagating while my site appears to be working; what’s going on?

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

  • Confirmed with host who claims my Cloudflare DNS is set up perfectly
  • Took off proxy and put it back on. Taking it off proxy results in a Cloudflare warning that I am exposing the A record’s ip address
  • Checked on DNS Checker - DNS Check Propagation Tool and there’s no hint of propagation with or without proxy

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

DNS not responding/updating

Hi @123rlion,

Please note that your record www is proxied which is why you don’t see a CNAME record.

If you run a dig command: dig www.hebrewlion.com A you will see Cloudflare IPs:

; <<>> DiG 9.10.6 <<>> www.hebrewlion.com A
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 12602

;; OPT PSEUDOSECTION:
; EDNS: version: 0, flags:; udp: 4096
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;www.hebrewlion.com.		IN	A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
www.hebrewlion.com.	300	IN	A	104.21.32.67
www.hebrewlion.com.	300	IN	A	172.67.184.65

This is expected behavior as Cloudflare uses these IPs to hide your real IPs.
