I just made a web app and pointed my custom domain (www.kuistouiuc.com) to kuistouiuc.azurewebsites.net
A Record from kuistouiuc.com to the IP address provided by azure settings
CName from www.kuistouiuc.com to kuistouiuc.azurewebsites.net
The website works fine when I type kuistouiuc.azurewebsites.net or www.kuistouiuc.com but gives me the error in the image when I try kuistouiuc.com
although the kuistouiuc.com is mapped to the IP address in the A Record
Why is this happening.I read the suggested article by the error and didn't help much as I followed exact directions
Although the docs claim it's enough to add A record for yourdomain.com and CNAME for *.yourdomain.com, it's not.
In addition to yourdomain.com, add www.yourdomain.com in Azure portal as well and it will work.

I have created one azure web app service (S1:1), I have registered custom domain (TXT, CNAME & A records in DNS) for this site. I am able to access site using FQDN (https://xyz.pqr.com) but when I am using IP address to access this site it give me below error.
Why am I doing this?
I want to redirect another application to this application using DNS resolver for that it make use of IP address.
The 404 error occurs due to multiple reasons, please check the below to resolve the error:
Please check your domain resolves to the apps IP address by using whatsmydns.net
Please check whether the A record is pointing to the wrong IP address.
Check whether the custom domain is having correct A record and CNAME configured.
The old IP address may be cached, so trying to clear the cache.
Make sure the custom domain is present in the Azure App Service like below:
Please note that, using both a CNAME record and an A record for the same domain can cause a conflict and prevent the domain from being resolved.
Please check this MsDoc for few causes and solutions that may give you a pointer to solve the issue.

There are certain variations to this question but none answered mine.
I have a custom domain aaaskills.mydomain.com pointing to azure website.
This was done by setting CNAME to aaaskills.mydomain.com -> azure website. This is all working fine. Good.
But I want to change the subdomain to skills.mydomain.com, so i updated the existing CNAME to skills.mydomain.com -> azure website. All good.
Now, in my Azure portal i'm trying to add a new hostname for new domain but the azure doesn't recognize the CNAME updated.
Now aaaskills.mydomain.com doesn't work and skills.mydomain.com is bringing up 404 not found and it is suggesting me to update custom domain in azure website.
Am i missing something here?
Domain ownership on azure website was resolved after awverify'ing the sub domain. I added CNAME with records like below to awverify.
CNAME('awverify.subdomain.domain.com','azure website url')
Double check to see if the CNAME and A records are appropriately added in your domain registrar.
Also it take some time for the new host to be reflected in the app's Custom domains page. Try refreshing the browser,Clear the cache and test DNS resolution again.
On a Windows machine, you clear the cache with ipconfig /flushdns.
If the issue still persists, kindly do let us know for further investigation.
I'm trying to bind my azure website to a third level domain.
This is my configuration on the Azure portal:
This is my domain provied A-Record console:
And this is my domain provider CName-Record console:
With this configuration the application works on http://www.test.mysite.biz but it doens't work on http://test.mysite.biz
(on http://test.mysite.biz it is displayed a page "domain reserved")
What Am I doing wrong?
Thanks a lot
You need to add another cname to your website
awverify.test pointing to awverify.yourazureapp.azurewebsites.net
check on https://www.whatsmydns.net/ to verify that awverify.test.yourwebsite.biz it is pointing to awverify.yourazureapp.azurewebsites.net
I am just starting my adventure with Azure and have encountered quite a few problems with setting up DNS settings for two domains, one with CPanel as management portal and the other one with DirectAdmin.
CPanel
The domain with Cpanel is setup correctly so that I can visit it at domain.com rather than domain.azurewebsites.net, but had a lot of troubles with receiving e-mails. Through my research I found out that the best solution is to get Google Apps or Microsoft 365 and host the domain on DNSimple. Is that right? Is there a way to sort it out without paying for services such as Google Apps/365 or programming mail receiver and sender in code?
DirectAdmin
I cannot get DNS set up properly at all. At first, similarly to what I did with Cpanel domain, I pointed "www.domain.com." to "www.domain.azurewebsites.net" and "awverify.domain.com." to "awverify.domain.azurewebsites.net". I also point to the IP given by Azure via A record "www" to "Azure IP". It didn't work so I thought I'll make a subdomain and repeat the steps from before but this time for azure.domain.com. Still no luck.
Any idea what I am doing wrong? Apologies if the question is too broad. If need any more information let me know.
it might be because as per rfc it is invalid
domain.com IN CNAME host.cloudapp.net ==> invalid
this article explain how to do it using either CNAME or A
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/cloud-services-custom-domain-name/
there is a proposed DNAME but i havent tested it to be working yet.
A couple of days ago I set up a new site in Azure and modified my DNS records to point to the site. I am unable to add the custom domains through the management tool or the portal.
The error I see is
"A CNAME record pointing from mysite.com to mysite.azurewebsites.net was not found. Alternative record awverify.mysite.com to awverify.mysite.azurewebsites.net was not found either."
(Changed my real domain to mysite as I'd rather not put that here).
The worst part is when I visit "mysite.com" it is showing me an Azure 404 page saying "The web site owner has registered a custom domain to point to the Microsoft Azure Web Site, but has not yet configured Azure to recognize it.".. I'm trying to configure it but Azure is not letting me!!!
For my DNS i have:
an A-Record pointing to my virtual IP
a second A-Record for www pointing to the IP (I did have www as a CNAME-Record for mysite.azurewebsites.net but that didn't seem to be working)
a CNAME-Record for awverify.mysite.com to awverify.mysite.azurewebsites.net
a CNAME-Record for awverify.www.mysite.com to awverify.www.mysite.azurewebsites.net
I thought maybe it was taking forever to propagate but it's been 2 days now.
Thanks!
Although it usually takes a couple of minutes for DNS records to be available, it can take up to 72 hours for DNS records to propagate. If it is all configured correctly (and looking at the list you posted, it is), it's a matter of waiting for it to propagate.
