CNAME for compute.circuitscape.org #13

Closed ViralBShah closed 10 years ago

ViralBShah commented 10 years ago

It would be great if a user can point to http://compute.circuitscape.org/ and have it forward to wherever the cloudCS happens to be hosted. @bmcrae should have the DNS registration.

@tanmaykm What all configuration changes would be needed to make this happen?

tanmaykm commented 10 years ago

No configuration changes on the cloudCS server. I think we just have to get the CNAME compute.circuitscape.org to point at julia.mit.edu for now. The port number 8080 needs to be mentioned in the URL though as we do not have access to default port 80 on the Julia machine.

Just gave it a try, got an error "The FQDN specified in the data field is not valid." Not sure if I'm doing it correctly.

There probably shouldn't be a dot after 8080.

bmcrae commented 10 years ago

I get the same error without it too- There's supposed to be a trailing dot for host names outside the domain.

I don't think we can specify the port number there. It should just be julia.mit.edu.

When I said The port number 8080 needs to be mentioned in the URL..., I meant in the final browser URL. So the browser URL would be http://compute.circuitscape.org:8080/, which is a bit odd for the user to remember, but can't be avoided at this stage.

Ah, got it. This time it worked (will take a bit for it to be live).

bmcrae commented 10 years ago

This will work now: http://compute.circuitscape.org:8080
