Subdomain to AppEngine Application w/ CloudFare

Question

I'm using cloudfare, and I have the record below:

Type        Name        Value               TTL         Active
A           mysubdomain to my webhost IP    Automatic   not

In cpanel, I have:

mysubdomain.example.com.    CNAME   ghs.google.com

The problem is that when I try to access my subdomain in browser, I was redirected to /cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi

What's wrong w/ my configuration?

Answer 1

It looks like you have an A record and a CNAME record for the same name pointing at different things. This doesn't make any sense.

Answer 2

You don't want to point to an A record to your IP for the subdomain if you're actually using Google for that subdomain (how I'm reading this). It would generally look like this, if you are:

CNAME subdomain name is an alias of ghs.google.com
