Create Custom domain names - DNS record problem

Question

I am new in AWS. I try to create new Custom domain names. I got this error:

One or more aliases specified for the distribution includes an incorrectly configured DNS record that points to another CloudFront distribution. You must update the DNS record to correct the problem. For more information, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/CNAMEs.html#alternate-domain-names-restrictions (Service: AmazonCloudFront; Status Code: 409; Error Code: CNAMEAlreadyExists; Request ID: ; Proxy: null)

I checked the CloudFront Distributions. I did not find the custom domain name in distributions. My Route 53 Hosted zones is empty.

Accepted Answer

You haven't mentioned where the domain that you added is hosted - but it's apparently not in Route53 since you mentioned you don't have any hosted zones. If you own the domain, you can query the name servers at the registrar. Once you have located the authoritative name servers for the domain, edit the zone file and remove any existing CNAME records pointing to CloudFront domain names.
If you do not own the domain, contact the owner to request changes to DNS.
