How to configure heroku application DNS to Godaddy Domain?

Question

I have created a heroku application and wants to give domain to it from godaddy.com.

I have configured all three hosts provided by heroku but now I am getting error

Answer 1

I used this videocast to set up my GoDaddy domain with Heroku, and it worked perfectly. Very clear and well explained.

Note: Skip the part about CNAME yourdomain.com. (note the .) and the heroku addons:add "custom domains"

To summarize the video:

1) on GoDaddy and create a CNAME with

Alias Name: www
Host Name: proxy.heroku.com

2) check that your domain has propagated by typing host www.yourdomain.com on the command line

3) run heroku domains:add www.yourdomain.com

4) run heroku domains:add yourdomain.com

It worked for me after these steps. Hope it works for you too!
