New name server : Error again ! Uknown REST API HTTP code

  • aurorecarolinemarty · Member ·

    Hello there,

    I hope some admin can see this message and help me out..

    I am transferring my domain name from wordpress.com to a new registrar (OVH).
    Having done everything right ( new registrar accepted migration code from wordpress.com ), i’m now waiting for something to happen on the side of wordpress.com admin panel. The latter states : “aurorecarolinemarty.com en attente de transfert. Veuillez attendre la fin du transfert avant de mettre à jour les paramètres auprès du nouveau registraire.”
    Translation : domainname.com is waiting for transfer. Please wait the end of transfer before update parameters at your new registrar.

    Now it’s been almost 5 days nothing happens, despite my questions on wordpress.com help chat, and the fact that the name is to expire in 2 days (!!), it looks like wordpress.com doesn’t want to let me use my domain name somewhere else..

    So in order to accelerate process, i understood i might change dns records from wordpress.com admin panel, which I tried to do.
    Yet when I enter my 2 new NS records (new registrar dns) at wordpress.com, it just says :

    Uknown REST API HTTP code

    What does this mean and how to solve this before time’s up ?! Or would I have to pay again my subscription at wordpress.com in order for the domain to not fall out of my hands ???
    Again, I find it really unfair that the domain name migration process out of wordpress.com to a new registrar isn’t better documented somewhere at wordpress.com.. it’s a true disappointment for me.

    Any piece of advice would be greatly welcome..

    Thank you in advance

    Hi there,

    You’re getting this error because your domain is still being transferred out. This process is taking 5-7 days and you’ll be able to renew (if not automatically) the domain at your new registrar.
