B4J Question Assign Domainname to B4J webserver.

[shashkiranr]

Hi All,

I am using a VPS to run the webserver created from B4J. I want to assign a domain name for the service that is running. Is there any way to do that. Kindly let me know.

Best,
SK

Does your server have a static ip address? You should set this ip in the registrar settings.

Hi Erel,

yes, I have a vps so I have a static IP address. What do you mean by registrar. If I want to assign to a sub domain then how can I do that?

Best,
SK

Are you asking about a sub domain or domain?

 

[shashkiranr]

Hi Erel,

Just confirmed, Its a sub domain.

You need to provide more information. Is there an Apache server running? Is the B4J server running on port 80?

Hi Erel,

Its a B4J server running on a VPS on port number 51043. I have followed the steps in the below thread.

You must have a domain name or share a sub domain. Then setup the DNS record.

Generally there are two types:
1. Domain (example.com) and sub domain ( sub.example.com). And you need a DNS service.
Name.com, Domain-Registration and Creating-A-Records

2. Public sub domain (free/paid) service (with DNS service ).

Your can visit the server with: yourdomain.duckdns.org:54021/test
