I have tried configuring SSL on Heroku which changed my DNS target from abc.herokuapp.com to abc.herokudns.com.
I removed the SSL now, however the DNS target is still pointing to abc.herokudns.com instead of abc.herokuapp.com
How do I fix this?
Thanks.
Have you tried to remove the domain?
heroku domains:remove yourdomain.com

I bought a domain name at domain.com, and tried to link it to my heroku app. Heroku provided me a DNS target, and I have put it through to my "DNS record" config in domain.com.
However when I try to generate automatic SSL certificate for my app, it still fails and returns me "CDN not returning HTTP challenge". I referred to this documentation, it says the reason for this error is that I haven't pointed the DNS to the one provided by Heroku DNS target. But I have already done it
Is there anything I misunderstood, or do I basically have to wait for a few days for it?
Under name just list it as www.your_site.com, heroku says that it will forward www.example.com to example.com.
In this case, as long as you have www.example.com set up, example.com
isn't needed as users can reach your site via www.example.com and to
set up www.example.com you need to use CNAME Records which all DNS
Providers allow you to set.
My heroku app is not linking to my godaddy custom domain
I've tried changing the cname to host to "www" and the "points to" to the heroku dns target I was given. Still it has not worked. I've also tried putting the url of the heroku app:
https://agile-thicket-51202.herokuapp.com/
I've tried the forwarding settings in godaddy as well but was unsuccessful.
(My custom domain has already been verified on heroku)
This is how it appears on my godaddy dns settings:
CNAME www "herokudnstarget"
Could other dns settings be interfering with this?
While working with cname GoDaddy only allows you to point www subdomain.For naked domain pointing use cloudflare or heroku add-on pointDNS.
I'm trying to point my GoDaddy domain to Heroku app. I followed the steps given here: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/custom-domains#add-a-custom-root-domain but I'm unable to access my Heroku app. Here are my DNS records settings:
Can someone tell me where I'm going wrong?
cname only allow you to point subdomain, so this case you should be able to see www subdomain pointed to Heroku, can you try to remove the A record.
I would recommend using DNS service like DNSimple/Cloudflare or in case you don't want to go out of Heroku you can try pointDNS
I have been struggling to configure my Heroku to point to my domain name registered with GoDaddy.
I've setup my Heroku domain:
And I've configured my CNAME www to point to www.ithhero.com.herokudns.com
So far all tutorials/examples I've seen have had a different DNS target e.g. www.ithero.herokuapp.com . And even though I have followed the steps no results have been yielded. Godaddy and Heroku have been bouncing responsibility between them when raising an issue with either.
What am I doing wrong?
You postet it a while ago so I assume you found a solution already, but you should only change your CNAME value from:
www.ithehero.com.herokudns.com
to
ithehero.com.herokudns.com
This is definitely an issue on GoDaddy.
If you try the following, you can see that the domain has been setup correctly from Heroku's side:
curl -v -H "Host: www.ithehero.com" www.ithehero.com.herokudns.com
Also, if you check your DNS resolution, your CNAME's haven't been propagated at all: https://www.whatsmydns.net/#CNAME/www.ithehero.com
I would go back to GoDaddy and get them to have a look at this.
I'm trying to setup a custom domain for my Heroku Cedar stack app, but it's not working.
I've tried entering 'host www.mydomain.com' command' in Terminal, but it yields no output.
I've already changed my DNS settings and added a 'CNAME' host: www, direct to: my domain.herokuapp.com but still it's not working.
What could I be doing wrong here???
Thanks,

The fact that you're not getting any results in terminal for host then the problem lies with your DNS settings - it sometimes takes a while for updates to propogate across the internet, I usually allow for 24 hrs to be sure. If it still doesn't work then you should get in touch with your DNS host.
You also have to add domain entries to your Heroku app:
heroku domains:add yourdomain --app yourapp
The "-app yourapp" is not required if you are in the root directory of your Rails app.
You can repeatedly add more than one domain to your Heroku app.
Here is an article about adding custom domains and DNS setup, at the Heroku Dev Center:
