I have a domain with GoDaddy and BigRock I want to host with appHarbour. Say I have a domain named "www.someDomain.com" and if some ones comes to this url if should show the application I have deployed on appHarbour.
Is this even possible ?
If yes, then how ?
Also I dont want my url to change
Is hosting live projects with AppHarbour recommended ?
P.S : My web app uses ASP.NET MVC and SQL.
Thanks
Yes, AppHarbor supports custom hostnames. From support response:
you'll essentially need to set up a CNAME for www.somedomain.com which point to your app on AppHarbor - for instance using the foo.apphb.com URL. If you're in doubt about how to configure a CNAME for your domain name on GoDaddy I'd recommend reaching out to them.
On the AppHarbor end you'll just need to add www.somedomain.com to your "Hostnames" section

I have uploaded a Magento website to Azure website. It was working perfectly fine with websitename.azurewebsites.net
But when i tried to use a custom domain(I did the dns thing also). Whenever i go to the custom domain or with .azurewebsites.net it redirects to www.websitename.azurewebsites.net
Why is the www coming before websitename.azurewebsites.net ?
You configured your DNS with CNAME
www.websitename.azurewebsites.net
Check the guide you followed for DNS configuration and make sure "www" in the front is removed.
I have a client with three websites, each with separate c-panels for their hosting and dns management.
I need to point a subdomain from website-1 and website-2 to website-3, and then have their root be a subfolder on website-3.
I was able to set up a simple subdomain for website-3, and set it's root to the subfolder that I needed, but am having trouble pointing the other two sites.
It seems (from googling around) that the issue is caused by the site's all sharing an IP address, since they're all on the same server.
On website-3 where the subfolder is, I've tried setting up an "add-on domain" of test.website-1.com but get an error stating:
website-1.com is already configured. Sorry, that domain is already setup (remove it from httpd.conf)
I get a similar error trying to use the park a domain settings in the cpanel. I don't have access to the server in a way that lets me httpd.conf (unless there's a way through the cpanel).
Is there any other way to set this up that I'm missing?
If you are using IIS, you can create a website (Add Web site under Sites folder in IIS) in IIS and point to any folder. For example, if you are trying to point a subdomain mysubdomain.website-1.com to a particular folder, create a website in IIS that points to that subfolder, then in bindings, bind it to mysubdomain.website-1.com. In your domain registry, simply point the sub domain to the same IP of Website-1. I believe that should work.
Unfortunately, my knowledge is limited to IIS. If you are not using IIS, you may find other resources to configure a subdomain.
If all your primary domains are using same IP , you will not be able to point the subdomains as you have mentioned since all the subdomains also using the same IPs.
Instead of pointing the subdomain 1 subdomain 2 to subdomain 3 ... just set up redirects directly to subdomain 3 for each subdomain from their primary domain's cpanel.
You can easily set the redirects from Redirects option in cpanel
I have a single site at www.domain1.com. It's a PHP site being hosted on a Windows 2008/IIS 7.5 box. I need to set up www.domain2.com so that users are redirected to www.domain1.com/subfolder. To the user, they still see www.domain2.com in the address bar but are looking at the www.domain1.com/subfolder.
Any help on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated!
You need to use IIS Application Request Routing and Url Rewrite modules. This walkthrough describes almost exactly what you are trying to achieve.
I am have a web application on local IIS (mylocalsite.com)
What settings I need, so that I can handle all subdomains of my local site, like
user1.mylocalsite.com
user2.mylocalsite.com
anything.mylocalsite.com
All urls will point to same index page from where I can seperate subdomain and load page accordingly.
Since your description is not that clear, my initial thought would that you can setup different Bindings in IIS to cater for all the subdomains.
In IIS 7, right click your website -> Edit Bindings -> Add..
But my guess would be that you may need to do this from code, since users are added to your system (assuming user/sub-domain model). For this I refer you to
Create Binding in in IIS (iis.net)

I have two sites running under one Sitecore 6 installation. The home nodes of the sites are as such:
/sitecore/content/Home
/sitecore/content/Careers
Assuming the primary site is at domain.com, the careers site can be accessed at careers.domain.com.
My problem is that, by prefixing the uri with /sitecore/content/, any sitecore item can be accessed by either (sub)domain. For example, I can get to:
http://domain.com/sitecore/content/careers.aspx (should be under careers.domain.com)
http://careers.domain.com/sitecore/content/home/destinations.aspx (should be under domain.com).
I know I can redirect these urls (using IIS7 Redirects or ISAPIRewrite) but is there any way to 'lock' Sitecore down to only serve items under the configured home node for that domain?
I can't say for sure without testing it but you could try putting each site it its own security domain and denying access to each other. In the <sites/> node there is a domain="extranet" attribute, create a new security domain and set the Careers site to use it.
You can create new security domains using the domain manager in the Sitecore desktop.
