ping: Temporary failure in name resolution - but "Test record" form in route 53 against domain returns "no error"

Thanks for the info.

The nameservers in Route 53 - Registered domains - akblvd.com were different than what was in the "Hosted Zone Details" in Route 53 - Hosted Zone - akblvd.com. There is an edit button, but no way to change the NS servers in that edit form. See attached.

I deleted the Host file and recreated it, but aws just added NS servers that were not the NS servers in the Registered Domains - akblvd.com

Since there's no way to edit the NS in the Hosted Zone for akblvd.com and deleting and recreating the hosted zone file for akblvd.com recreated ns servers that differed from the Registered domains, I edited the NS servers in the Registered Domains to match what was in the hosted zone.

whois akvblvd.com now returns the name servers that are the servers in the hosted zone and in the registered domains.

whois: Name Server: NS-826.AWSDNS-39.NET Name Server: NS-1400.AWSDNS-47.ORG Name Server: NS-206.AWSDNS-25.COM Name Server: NS-1879.AWSDNS-42.CO.UK

aws:

I have to wait 2 days for it to propagate. I'll see if that works. If you foresee an issue with what I've done, feel free to voice it.

Thanks again!

The name servers returned by WHOIS don't match the nameservers in your hosted zone (in the imgur link).

All four name server records in the registered domain https://console.aws.amazon.com/route53/domains/home#/

Need to match the name server records in the hosted zone https://console.aws.amazon.com/route53/v2/hostedzones#

It would be best not to touch the records in the Registered Domain section and instead alter the Hosted Zone records to match. The steps to do this are here (I know you're not really migrating the domain, but the process is the same) https://repost.aws/knowledge-center/route-53-update-name-servers-registrar

Steps 4 thru 9 of this document go through the same steps in more detail https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/migrate-dns-domain-in-use.html

Make sure you lower the TTL (time-to-live) value before starting so that changes will propagate quicker. You can put it back to the larger value once everything is working.
