URL: https://udalice-integrated.vercel.app
framework: NextJs
environment: production

The domain troubleshooting guide can help with most custom domain configuration issues. You might be able to use that guide to solve it before a human is available to help you. Then you can come back here and share the answer for bonus points.

You can also use v0 to narrow down the possibilities.

Hello, We have seen government of Nigeria and ISP often blocks the requests. Have you tried contacting your ISP?

Yes i have and i have they have also assisted in pointing the DNS to Vercel servers on their end and have confirmed to me that they didn’t block requests. They suggested i reach out to Vercel support since the DNS is configured properly. I have pointed domains i bought from them to my Render static sites with no problem at all, and decided to try Vercel since the project is a NextJs project.

Can you run following command and share us the output:

curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vercel-support/vercel-connect-debug/main/vercel-debug.sh | bash | tee vercel-debug.txt

Done here’s the vercel-debug.txt file content:

The site is working for me. It must be your DNS, ISP, region, or something.
Also, I should note — the site redirects to www.udalice.com.ng by default. Not sure if that is of importance to you…

Yeah the redirection is expected which you can configure from Domain Settings in your project. Also the curl result is incomplete as most of the comment couldn’t run in your system. Are you on corporate restricted computer of something? Regardless, your DNS isn’t allowing to connect to Vercel server:


processing: https://udalice.com.ng
Trying 76.76.21.21:443…
connect to 76.76.21.21 port 443 failed: Connection refused
Failed to connect to udalice.com.ng port 443 after 2262 ms: Couldn’t connect to server
Closing connection```

Ok how do i stop the redirect to www.udalice.com.ng at least, maybe that might improve the experience.

You should be able to delete www domain from vercel dashboard > Project > Domains section.
