I have a heroku app which i want to point to www.infoxpression.in

I added the domain name on heroku and added CNAME record in my bigrock DNS management but it is not working...

Big rock DNS management records: enter image description here

Heroku dashboard: enter image description here

Am i doing it wrong?

To connect your heroku hosting to big rock domain,

You have to open your big rock domain account and in the DNS Management page add in the cname the host: www and in the point to: your heroku url And in the heroku page in the settings add three domains:

1 *.xyz.com 2: xyz.com 3. www.xyz.com

This is to point your domain name from heroku side

heroku domains:add example.com

heroku domains:add www.example.com

heroku domains:add *.example.com

This should work :) Check this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kKGSGT7mSnQ&feature=youtu.be

Please make sure that your bigrock account has default nameservers like in the image:

Domain registration >> Name Servers

Do the domain forwarding as well.

Domain forwarding >> Manage domain forwarding >> add new

sub-domain prefix = (leave it blank if you have no subdomain)
destination URL = http://www.yourdoamin.com
URL masking is off

However, it will take 24-48 hours for updating.
