Hi all,

Well I didn't expect to be here this soon looking for some knowledge but I just can figure this out.

graceofglass.com

This domain has the following;

1. Points to my DNS
2. Outside whois lookup shows correct IP, A and SOA
3. Can receive email from other hosts

What this site "won't do" is resolve in a browser. Just can't get it to work. There are no logs at all for the domain. Which I would suspect if it diesn't resolve. Name servers were changed to mine about 8 hours ago.

***Now normally this would be a red flag but every source I check has the correct name servers and can resolve DNS on the domain just fine.

Things i've done.

1. Restarted apache
2. Restarted named
3. Restarted directadmin
4. Rebooted the server
5. Rewriten all apache configs
Code: 
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build rewrite_confs
6. Checked perms on files
7. Reset DNS records using that option in DA CP
8. Removed and re-added the domain - Does not fix the issue
9. Checked my firewall just in case

**I CAN MAKE IT WORK**
If I set my local hosts file to resolve the domain it will resolve the domain with the correct vhost which means that Apache is ok and it's doing it's business but NOT if it has to use DNS to resolve.

But there is nothing wrong with DNS as far as I can tell. I can reload the zone and there are no errors.

Code: 
2010-09-16T23:41:02.530903-04:00 cp named[6044]: loading configuration from '/etc/named.conf'
2010-09-16T23:41:02.535636-04:00 cp named[6044]: zone graceofglass.com/IN: loaded serial 2010091600
2010-09-16T23:41:02.536121-04:00 cp named[6044]: zone graceofglass.com/IN: sending notifies (serial 2010091600)
2010-09-16T23:41:02.536459-04:00 cp named[6044]: client 173.230.133.181#32768: received notify for zone 'graceofglass.com'
2010-09-16T23:41:02.565500-04:00 cp proftpd[6010]: ioncode.com - received SIGHUP -- master server reparsing configuration file
2010-09-16T23:44:02.233974-04:00 cp named[6044]: loading configuration from '/etc/named.conf'

I'm hoping this is some DA thingy that I just don't know about cause I'm pulling my hair out at this point. :)

Please tell me I missed something obvious!

Thanks for you help!

It's working fine for me... both in my browser and also looking at your dns... all looks well.

Try flushing your dns on your pc. :) Most likely your ISP is slow to update their dns.
 
If your ISP dns servers really takes hours, I can recommend using OpenDNS http://www.opendns.com/ changes are minutes at most is my experience.

Right now I'm using a Win2008 machine which querys the rootservers themselves :)
 
Argh! Comcast.

Since I could send email to it from many hosts I never figured it could be ISP DNS. But, that's the first thing I thought of when I woke up and sure enough that's what it was.

You guys figured it out before me. :)

Thank for the help. Very much appreciated.
