To bring an external domain to azure web app ,

  • I configured CNAME FOR www,
  • Configured cname for awverify ,
  • added another CNAME to redirect root (example.com ) to www.example.com.

everything propagated properly

Then in azure portal i added these external domains , after a few tries everything worked fantastic, The link redirected to the azure portal.

but than i put http://example.com in the browser and it gives error ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED.

May be i am missing something here. now what is required to be done ?

here are the CNAME entries added by me

  • www.example.com exmple.azurewebsites.net Active

  • awverify.www.example.com awverify.example.azurewebsites.net Active

  • *.example.com www.example.com Active

What should be the entries in CNAME or A record ?

Looks like you didn't configure the A record. It is necessary it you want to use the naked domain.

Take a look a this Azure documentation page that explains in details how to set a domain name for your Web app: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-custom-domain-name/
