I had been granted hosting under angad619.trap17.com
Then I bought the domain - angadsodhi.com. So I paid 15 credits and changed the domain to angadsodhi.com Now how do I access my cpanel? Neither angad619.trap17.com/cpanel nor angadsodhi.com/cpanel works. Please help me out guys!!! I changed the nameservers on my domain to ns1.Trap17.com and ns2.Trap17.com Which URL do I redirect my domain to? |

I got into the cpanel but then how do I access my files?
Can I set the domain name to <something>.com even if I haven't registered it with you. The senario is such: I've registered a domain with a friend of mine and am using the trap 17 hosting. Now shoulld I have not changed my domain from angad619.trap17.com to angadsodhi.com ?? I'm really confused. If what I did was right, is there no deed of redirecting my domain? And if I do need to use redirection, angadsodhi.com >> what??? |

I believe that you will need to wait for the nameserver change to propagate throughout the web. It may be 48 to 72 hours for that to happen.
In the meantime, try using the IP method to connect to the cpanel. Please read the section of the Trap17 readme file which discusses this topic. Thanks. |

Thank you jlhaslip, thats what even my domain rpovider told me. I'll wait for another day or so and report back.
Thank you. Update: It's been more than 55hrs since the nameserver change. Now when I visit www.angadsodhi.com it redirects me to angad.trap17.com/wordpress !!!! Where did that come from?? Firstly, my previous domain was angad619.trap17.com (not angad.trap.....) and secondly, I'm not using domain forwarding!!! |

Desperately seeking "any key" to continue...  Group: Admin Posts: 3,627 Joined: 23-April 05 From: Trap17 storage box Member No.: 6,042 myCENT:33.80 |
I am looking at your NS records by http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools/dnsreport.ch....angadsodhi.com DNS Stuff and I see additional nameservers listed for your domain:
QUOTE park4.web1india.com. park1.web1india.com. park2.web1india.com. park3.web1india.com. Where did you purchase your domain and who is the registrar? Incorrectly setting nameservers will result in incorrectly using your domain with Trap17 hosting. |

I've registered my domain through web1. (http://domains.web1.in/)
park4.web1india.com park1.web1india.com park2.web1india.com park3.web1india.com were the previous default values provided. I changed them to ns1.trap17.com and ns2.trap17.com Will writing ns1.trap17.com instead of ns1.Trap17.com work? Does writing a capital T cause problems? The values of the nameserver are just the two provided by trap17. How do I take off those other 4. As seen in this screenshot, there are just 2 values. Please tell me what to do.  Thanks. |

That should work unless the current Registrar will not allow you to change the nameserver settings. They might have locked the accounts?

The domain isn't locked or something. They do allow me to change the nameservers (as seen in the screenshot!)
I seem to have done everything right. I can't see where the problem lies! Will cancelling this account and starting a new one help? But then how do I transfer my database? I have my wordpress Blog hosted with trap17. It's been over 4 days since the site has been down. I'm losing visitors!!!
