How can I get my OpenShift URL http://stats-lebronjamesstats.rhcloud.com/
to show as lebronjamesstats.com
. I bought the domain name from Godaddy and setup forwarding and a CNAME record that has subdomain www
point to stats-lebronjamesstats.rhcloud.com
. I also ran the alias
OpenShift commands:
rhc alias add stats lebronjamesstats.com
rhc alias add stats www.lebronjamesstats.com
I CAN'T do forward with masking because that breaks in browsers. Thanks for your help!

Basically you'll need to add an "alias" to your application via the
rhc
command line tool or through the web console. Here's two resources that will show you how to do that step by step:https://www.openshift.com/blogs/domain-names-and-ssl-in-the-openshift-web-console
https://www.openshift.com/blogs/custom-url-names-for-your-paas-applications-host-forwarding-and-cnames-the-openshift-way
Was able to get a cname record for
www
to point to my OpenShift url and then do forwarding fromlebronjamesstats.com
towww.lebronjamesstats.com
WITHOUT masking. All HTTP request now resolve towww.lebronjamesstats.com
. I could use a third party redirector to getlebronjamesstats.com
to show in the URL box. I might pursue this later.
