CNAME redirection not working in GoDaddy

I have a dom开发者_如何学Goain name myapp.com with GoDaddy, and I've deployed the site to Azure, so now the app is in myapp.cloudapp.net.

I'm trying to set up a CNAME from www.myapp.com to myapp.cloudapp.net but it doesn't work after two days and I was wondering if I've done something wrong.

I've set up a CNAME record from www to myapp.cloudapp.net in my DNS Manager in GoDaddy, and a forwarding from myapp.com to www.myapp.com. I did this on Friday.

When I try to access myapp.com I get redirected to www.myapp.com, but then it says "Page not found", actually if I do a ping, it cannot resolve www.myapp.com, but it can resolve myapp.com.

Of course, if I try myapp.cloudapp.net it works perfectly.

There is still an A record in the DNS Manager, should I remove it? What may I be doing wrong?

Cheers.

Before this is moved to SuperUser, do you have a hosting account with GoDaddy? The reason I ask is because they don't handle your DNS for you unless you pay for hosting too.

This leaves you with two options

1. Pay for it
2. Get it free

I recommend trying the free option first
