AWS Lightsail domain does not resolve

Question

Hello, I have a problem with Lightsail DNS and I would appreciate some help on this. These are the steps I have followed until now:

1. I created an instance on Lightsail and attached a static IP to it.
2. I deployed a website on the instance and I am able to access it through the static IP.
3. Then I registered a domain ("amentes.es") through Route 53 (since the TLD ".es" was not available to be registered directly with Lightsail). I did **NOT** created a hosted zone in Route 53 since I want to manage it with Lightsail DNS zones.
4. I created a DNS zone in Lightsail, and created an A record with name "@.amentes.es" routing traffic to the static IP. I also changed the domain NameServers to match the DNS zone ones.

My problem is that I can access the website through the static IP, but accessing "http://amentes.es" cannot resolve the IP (DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN error). I also tried to ping the domain but it returns an error (Temporary failure in name resolution).

This is the screen of the domain at Route 53:

![Enter image description here](/media/postImages/original/IMmgdz_yaJTEW_Rt8ISJlimA)

These are the DNS zone Name servers:

```
ns-1474.awsdns-56.org
ns-538.awsdns-03.net
ns-1558.awsdns-02.co.uk
ns-101.awsdns-12.com
```

This is the static IP:
![Enter image description here](/media/postImages/original/IMIP_izmrFQT-kjSXGh45Ccg)

And this is the screen with the records of the DNS zone in Lightsail:
![Enter image description here](/media/postImages/original/IMZc36AtCYRtSPUro8vyslyg)

I would appreciate if someone could tell me if I've missed something or there is something I can try to debug the problem.
Thanks!

Accepted Answer

Hello.

I did not get "DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN" in my environment.
We also confirmed that the IP address is tied to the domain.
The request method may be incorrect because of the 400 error.

nslookup amentes.es
Server:         192.168.11.1
Address:        192.168.11.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:   amentes.es
Address: 3.79.177.221

curl http://amentes.es/
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <title>Bad Request (400)</title>
</head>
<body>
  <h1>Bad Request (400)</h1><p></p>

Bad Request (400)
