Domain Pointer deleted Domain Created - still pointing

[Dixiesys]

Ok a user deleted a domain pointer (domain2.com pointed to domain1.com).

He then added domain2.com back as a full fledged virtual host.

domain2.com still redirects to domain1.com, I've checked dns, it looks ok, and the httpd.conf in the user's directory looks ok, so I'm stumped :)

no .htaccess or index.html doing a metarefresh in public_html either (wouldn't surprise me to see a user do that but nope).

Hello,

That's a bug that's already on the bug list, but it only affects emails. Re-add the domain2.com pointer, then delete it, THEN you can creat the domain2.com domain. .. Not sure why apache isn't working.. that wasn't really a problem (from what I have experienced).

Pehaps try looking in:
/usr/local/directadmin/data/users/username/domains/domain.com.pointers, and if the pointer it there, be sure to remove it (through the panel would be best).

Nope domain2 isn't in the .pointers file, a search for domain2 only finds it mentioned in domain2.com.xxx files in that directory.

The domain that "was" a pointer is www.shuka.org and you'll see where it points when you load it.

Both domains are on the same user, both are virtual and I'm stumped :)

Here's some files I checked that I thought might be the problem but I see no problems?

Not sure then. Check the
/usr/local/directadmin/data/users/username/httpd.conf

to see if there is a redirect. Or else check the public_html folder for any cause. *something* has to be forwarding it. Find out what it is, then figure out why DA has it setup that way.

AHH jesus christ I found the problem.

The customer's DNS is still pointing to the OLD server where there IS a redirect the DNS isn't even POINTING to the Directadmin server! I just realized it checking dns and it finally hit me he was resolving to www13.genericdns.com and NOT da13.awesomedns.com (the DA server).

SHEESH well at least I know what's wrong.

Did it take a lot of work to get phpBB to work in hebrew?

I'm sold; we're switching to phpBB.

We already have a client interested in hebrew.
