### bndiagnostic was not useful. Could you please tell us why?

The suggested guides don't seem relevant to my issue?

### Describe your issue as much as you can

Hi there, 

I tried to flip my staging server live today by adding the domain to it and I ran into issues. 

I reverted, but now I can't connect to the instance in browser. The instance has a new Static IP address but always eventually fails and resolves at the old one.

I've tried creating a new instance from a snapshot from a few days ago, but the issue persists which makes me think the issue must have something to do with the Static IP.

The Bitnami diagnostic tool has identified some potential issues with the Apache configuration but none of them seem relevant. AWS support suggested I contact you for help.

Thank you!

If you are changing domains, you first need to ensure that the domain resolves to the proper IP

https://www.whatsmydns.net/

If that's correct, you need to update the wp-config file (in case you set the domain there) and the references in the database. There was a similar case here

You will need to use this plugin to update the database
