I have created sub domain, but when am browsing it in a browser it shows an error: "This webpage is not available".

Do I need to add some records in DNS Zone ? Normally in other hostings I haven't met such problem, cause sub domain was working immediately.

Just try to resolve the new domain by dig or nslookup commangs from server anf from remote workstation. Some times we need to wait aprox. 10 minutes, before dns-cache updates.

  • did you update zone serial? ones you have old zone serial, the zone will be cached till TTL – shcherbak Dec 16 '15 at 08:03
  • where I can update that pls ? It is the first time that am using IIS7 :( @shcherbak – aiddev Dec 16 '15 at 08:04
  • if i remember well, right click on root node on DNS-management console, General tab. test your zone by online tool http://network-tools.com/. This toll shows serial number of zone. you can grep https://www.howtoforge.com/troubleshooting-common-dns-misconfiguration-errors for troubleshuting. And dummy question: did you restart the DNS? – shcherbak Dec 16 '15 at 08:10
  • Seems it has just started to show something. That is good for now. But one question server should automatically create folder for subdomain as normal servers do, right? @shcherbak – aiddev Dec 16 '15 at 08:16
  • or I need to create folder for sub domain myself and write rewrire rules in web.config file? @shcherbak – aiddev Dec 16 '15 at 08:29
  • depends on webhosting settings. ususly need to create subdomain and folder – shcherbak Dec 16 '15 at 08:33
  • right now I created folder with sub domain name but it shows server default page. Do you have any thoughts how can I override this and show what I have in that folder under the sub domain ? @shcherbak – aiddev Dec 16 '15 at 08:35
