I just set up Odoo for the first time and am going through a learning curve since coming from Magento.

I am on a Cloud Account and used the article explaining this on Odoo to setup

I have two domains; diy-cabinetdoors.com and diy-cd.com both on GoDaddy.com.  I have purchased email on godaddy for diy-cd.com and have successfully setup the email server on Odoo.

My problem is that I cannot get the DNS records to work on Godaddy.  I have gone through the instructions on Odoo but it still says "This site cannot be reached" when navigating to www.diy-cabinetdoors.com or www.diy-cd.com.

I added a CNAME record on Godaddy whos NAME is www.diy-cabinetdoors.com with a VALUE of diy-cabinet-doors.odoo.com  TTL 1 Week. I added this 2 days ago and still have no access to my site via my GoDaddy domain.


I edited the Database on Odoo and Added www.diy-cabinetdoors.com and www.diy-cd.com

What am I missing?

Below is a copy of my DNS Record for DIY-Cabinetdoors.com on GoDaddy

Just to let you know.

My customer had an old website with wordpress linked to his domain name.

I spent 2 hours with Godaddy support and what I had to do is to create an A records configuration line link to the ip address of the odoo database.

 With cmd.exe  type->  nslookup "mywebsite".odoo.com

name: mywebsite.odoo.com

address: 34.123.115.36

So my config looks like on godaddy:


Type - Name - Value - TTL (Time to Live)
A           @     34.123.115.36     1 hour
CNAME  www     @                 1 hour
CNAME www.mydomain.com mywebsite.odoo.com 1 hour


And it's working for me. Hope that will help someone else.

"In a proper environment, you should setup a reverse proxy, preferably on a separate server in front of Odoo."

How should I do this?

Sunny Dev - I'm on a Cloud account.

Thanks Paresh W.  I used that article to set up and have read it a dozen times to make sure i haven't missed anything. I just changed the 1st CNAME record and am waiting on it to populate. Hopefully it will be this simple.

I apparently don't have enough Karma Points to properly respond, which seems ridiculous - I can post a question but can't respond to inquiries on that question?  So I am forced to edit the one response that I am allowed until I get enough Karma Points... My thoughts on Odoo are not moving in the direction I had hoped...


UPDATE:  Simply changing the fist entry to www worked. Thank you Paresh W for the correct answer. I would up your answer but I don't have enough Karma points to do so....

Hello,

you need to setup  NGINX Reverse Proxy and you can reference from below link,
​

https://www.cybrosys.com/blog/how-to-configure-odoo-with-nginx-as-reverse-proxy

and after that you need to apply below command.

sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/your_nginx_file /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
your_nginx_file

​

I hope it will help you

Thanks

Also, if this still doesn't work try changing "www.diy-cabinetdoors.com" in your first entry to just "www".

How much time godaddy will take to update the changes we make?

Paresh Wagh

Hi Umer: They normally say within 24 hours, but most of the time I've seen it happening in a couple of minutes. You may want to ask GoDaddy support about it too.
