Domain Problems

I uploaded my index.html file into the www folder and everytime i try to access my website i get this error:

Can't Find Web Site Did you click on a link?
The site may no longer exist or it may have moved. If you know the exact Web address, type it into the address box at the top of your screen.

Did you type a Web address?
Double-check for any misspellings, punctuation errors, or extra spaces. Or try including http://www. at the beginning (i.e., if the address you were given is aol.com, type http://www.aol.com/).

Still no luck?
Try one of these links: http://www.netcenter.com/ or http://www.digitalcity.com/. If these work, any problems probably lie with the site you were trying to visit. If they don't work, close all programs currently running. Restart your computer, sign back on, and try the site again.

500 Unknown Host

Im not sure if this is a cpanel problem im having or a server problem, its most likely my lack of knowledge using cpanel.

Thanks.

seems like you have a missing entry at the httpd.conf file. First try the following:
===========================
1. ping your domain from any command prompt. You can even use http://centralops.net for this.

Check if that ip belongs to that of your host; else it must be a DNS issue. so make the nameservers of your domain as given to you by your host.

2, If ping is fine; then your browser is sure able to get to the server. And that means that the apache in the server dosen't recognize your domain. In that case contact yout host's support to correct the issue.

The "timed out" result is telling you the IP/domain address is not available.

yea.. either your domain is not resolving to a valid ip address; or your host has blocked the ping request; or your domain isn't registered at all.

you can also send me the domain name as PM so that we can have a check.
