Blogger Custom Domains, As Well As Mapped Services
Friday, April 10, 2020
Edit
I've been observing custom domain publishing, too how it's affected yesteryear applications mapped through diverse Google services, for a few years.
The good known "Another blog", too it's successor "Key already exists", convey three possible causes.
If y'all map a Google service to a URL inward your domain, fifty-fifty temporarily, too therefore precisely disable the service, y'all tin terminate upwards amongst a domain URL that remains mapped to the service. When y'all try to divulge your weblog to that URL, you're going to meet "Another weblog ..." or "Key already exists ...".
When in that place is an service mapped to a URL, that y'all require to use, reset the service.
Resetting a service is non hard - every bit long every bit y'all convey access to the dashboard, for the service that's mapped to your domain URL.
Create a novel DNS address inward the domain.
In this example, amongst the service beingness a Google Apps Engine project, we'll remap to "project.mydomain.com". Create a novel "CNAME".
Enable the service.
The service has to endure enabled, for the settings to endure changed.
Change the service mapping, to the novel address.
Change the app to divulge to "project.mydomain.com". This volition costless upwards the electrical flow URL, "mydomain.com" or "www.mydomain.com", therefore y'all tin divulge the blog.
Publish to a greater extent than or less content, using the service.
This ensures that the service remapping becomes active.
Delete the published content.
Be tidy, too take balance content, earlier disabling the service.
Disable the service.
You are similar a shot done amongst the service - until y'all want to hold working on it later.
Re divulge the blog, to the domain.
Publish the weblog back to the BlogSpot URL (if necessary), too therefore in i trial again publish to the domain URL. And don't forget to redirect the domain root, if y'all precisely published to the primary domain URL (generally, the "www" alias).
You're done.
And finally, complete the migration.
The good known "Another blog", too it's successor "Key already exists", convey three possible causes.
- Actual content, published to the URL.
- Bogus DNS addresses.
- Database corruption.
