[Whitelabel] Incorrect host mapping error

Learn what to do if the Whitelabel - Host Mapping error is being triggered in your AWR account.

If the Whitelabel - Host Mapping error is being triggered, the custom subdomain preferences cannot be saved due to any of the possible cases:

  • the entered subdomain does not target the proper CNAME: app.advancedwebranking.com. You can check your subdomain target record using the following online tool

  • your subdomain was properly configured, but not yet propagated. Depending on the domain hosting provider, propagation time can vary

Nameserver changes can typically take 0 to 24 hours to take effect, but they are known to take as long as 48 hours to go into full effect.

Note

If the Whitelabel - Host mapping has been enabled for [placeholder].awrcloud.com, a new subdomain is required, one which has the required CNAME: app.advancedwebranking.com

The AWR Hostmapping cannot be used for both [placeholder].awrcloud.com and app.advancedwebranking.com, under the same account / subscription, even if 2 different subdomains are configured. 

In this case, we recommend migrating the AWR subscription accordingly.
