First of all, your cPanel has to point to your subdomain name. Secondly you change to domain name that you do not own. How could you expect that to work when you don't own niiice.com? You wanted to point hosting to niiice.net. But do you own it? According to whois, no body has purchased that domina. Therefore, you are pointing your hosting to empty air. http://www.domaintools.com/ for your information.

well i thought they hosted domains..

[BuffaloHelp 24]

Who "THEY" are you talking about? Have you tried to log in through http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ to your cPanel? Since your niiice.trap17.com does not exist of course you can't access your cPanel using niiice.trap17.com/cpanel Try the IP link and tell us if you can or cannot access it.

And make sure you post at least 3 sentences explaining in detail what you have done and tried. One more one liners and you will be warned.

"They" "Here" And Yes i can access it with my ip. The cpanel but i think its no good. :/ i know it doesnt exist enymore :/..Ok i can acess the cpanel using the ip adreess but what good will that do?

[BuffaloHelp 24]

It proves that your site is working but your domain name is screwed up. That is the first diagnosis. The second is what does your cPanel says your domain name is? Is it niiice.com or niiice.trap17.com? If it's pointing to niiice.com did you purchase this domain name? Because the domain name have not expired or will be in few years. This leads me to believe that you do not own that domain name. That means you pointed to someone else's domain. So you need to change your domain name. Do some researches before you change/purchase a domain name. If you were planning to purchase niiice.com you won't be able to. If you are planning to purchase niiice.net you should soon because according to whois no one owns it.

So we solve the problem. Because you changed your domain name using the name changing script without FIRST owning that name, both your subdomain.trap17.com and your name said in your cPanel isn't working with your hosting. You either purchase a domain name or change it back to youName.trap17.com. Either way it will cost another 15 credits.Topic is closed if there aren't any more RELEVANT questions.

isnt sub-domain advertising?

[BuffaloHelp 24]

What advertising? Subdomain means a domain name under another one. So yourname.trap17.com is actually a domain name under Xisto.com. The TOS says that you are provided with a FREE SUBDOMAIN name. Xisto does not provide free domain name. OpaQue has in his signature where to purchase inexpensive domain name. And that's why there are few dozen of topics related to cheap domain names. Now you get it?

[Saint_Michael 3]

yeah this issue is solved once we figure out what happen.
