DNS Records for *.whocoronavirus.org don't work from Terraform

brunobowden commented 4 years ago

Summary

The DNS Records set up in PR #1721 don't work. A possibility is that it needs setting up with two name servers:

ns-cloud-dX: domain console for MX records, google-site-verification and so on
ns-cloud-aX: Cloud DNS for GCP projects, e.g. staging.whocoronavirus.org

TODO: figure out how to make this work in the Domain console. I tried configuring it to use the list of combined name servers but couldn't get it to work.

Workaround

Manually add A record in Domain console (link is above).

Other Notes

@matthewblain - not a priority to launch but helpful for other developers. Something to experiment with in your separate Google organization. With Google providing the registrar services as well, this should all work together seamlessly.

@matthewblain - ignore this for now. Manually configuring for the moment.
