    Azure - using static IP via GoDaddy

    Being a developer I am no expert in DNS/CNAME/etc setup.

    Situation:
    • Have a domain with GoDaddy, dedicated IP + SSL
    • Website resides on Azure websites (PaaS not VM)
    • www.mydomain.co.uk points to a subdomain of .azurewebsites.net (mydomainprod.azurewebsites.net) and thus shares Azure's default IP
    • When I put in my IP I get a generic 'Error 404 - Web app not found.' message


    Would there happen to be someone here that knows how to configure things in a way that to the outside world www.mydomain.co.uk runs from the dedicated IP address?

    Azure webpage shown when navigating the IP:
    The web app owner has registered a custom domain to point to the Microsoft Azure App Service, but has not yet configured Azure to recognize it. Click here to read more.

    Don't know anything about Azure, but when you setup a webserver with lots of domains using the same IP like this you need to specify somewhere in the settings the domain name. It's not enough to simply point your domain at the right IP.
    Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

      I think you have to use a CNAME. In your DNS management console point "mydomain" at "mydomain.azure.net"

      May life give you what you need, rather than what you want....

        Virtual hosts in httpd.conf isn't it?

          It's outbound traffic only and just to communicate with a single 3rd party system not for all traffic such as HTML and images.

          I'm looking at something Microsoft offers but any ideas appreciated.
