Set up CDN with an OVH domain

Question

I've been following this tutorial to Add a custom domain to your Azure CDN endpoint , but i didn't succeed to make everything work.

I'm using my storage account with a $web blob that has a Public access level set to "blob"

primary endpoint is https://snapacastorage.z13.web.core.windows.net/

i have the CDN set and verified: https://snapacacdn.azureedge.net/$web/index.html

but i think the problem comes from my configuration of the domain provider OVH, there i have this problem:

zone snapaca.com/IN: has no NS records

My DNS zone is set to :

• domain: www.snapaca.com.
• ttl: 0    
• Type: CNAME    
• Target : snapacacdn.azureedge.net.

and my DNS Servers are set to :

ns4-09.azure-dns.info  
ns3-09.azure-dns.org   
ns2-09.azure-dns.net   
ns1-09.azure-dns.com

what am i doing wrong ? :/

Answer 1

Hi, 

I see you have set up "Azure DNS Zone" and created a CNAME record for your domain pointing to Azure CDN. 

Is this domain delegated?

Do you own "snapaca.com" domain?

You can follow the below documentation to delegate your domain: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/dns/dns-domain-delegation 

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Answer 3

Thanks for your quick answer,

yes, I own the domain.

Yesterday I managed to handle the https://www.snapaca.com  using the CDN, without delegating the domain, thanks to the CNAME.

Now i'm trying to handle the domain without www. I read that i cannot use a CNAME for the root.i tried to do a redirection from snapaca.com to www.snapaca.com directly from OVH panel but it doesn't seems to work...

So now i just went back and added again the azure-dns  hoping that it will work. so i guess i'll wait up to 48h...

My DNS zone from OVH:

        60 IN TXT    "4|https://www.snapaca.com"
www   3600 IN CNAME  snapacacdn.azureedge.net.

My DNS servers from OVH

the 4 are sets to the azure-dns ...

I got my answer from another post :

"OVH doesn't support root domain pointing to other domain. You can do it in CloudFlare, AWS Route53 or dnssimple. I was able to do it in CloudFlare."

I'm switching from OVH To Namecheap hopefully it'll works.

Thx msrini
