How to map a domain name to a load balancer in google cloud platform?
I have successfully set up a load balancer in google cloud platform
If I use the IP as shown in the image, I can test and verify that the set up is working as I planned.
Now I would like to map a domain name to the IP. I want to use www.mycompany.com
. I have already created a A
record in my DNS to point www
to 1.2.3.4
. However the domain name gives a 404 error.
I am sure I need to associate this new domain name to the IP address.
There is no obvious place to do it in load balanceing
or external IP addresses
screen.
Where can I do it?
Solution 1:
It seems to take time for gcp to know how to handle the new domain name. About some 15 minutes after the additional of the new A
record, the domain name www.mycompany.com
starts to work. The 404 screen is gone
