I have set up A and CNAME records. When I go to manage domains in the azure portal I enter alqalam.tv and www.alqalam.tv (my domain). The page shows that it has verified but when I save it shows an error. I have tried storage custom domain but it doesn't even verify.

My Azure website subdomain is alqalam.azurewebsites.net

I have made DNS lookup: http://www.hscripts.com/tools/HDNT/dns-record.php and it shows

Domain Type Class Result

www.alqalam.tv. CNAME IN Alqalam.azurewebsites.net.

alqalam.tv. A IN 94.245.104.73

thank you

For clarification, have you added the CNAME awverify.www.alqalam.tv in your provider's domain hosting? - SeanCocteau
it is optional: I'm quoting manage.windowsazure.com: "www.yourdomain.com to Alqalam.azurewebsites.net, or from awverify.www.yourdomain.com to awverify.Alqalam.azurewebsites.net" thank you - Techy
But you've configured an A record which does require the awverify, could there be a conflict between the CNAME and A record? Details -> azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/… - SeanCocteau
I did add awverify and verified with both an online tool and azure but still it doesn't work. Please tell me if you think that I can do something else or is there a way to get free technical support. - Techy
Well DNS changes do take sometime to propagate, typically 24 hours. You may need to be patient while DNS sorts itself out. - SeanCocteau
