title: why does my domain name immediately switch to showing its ip address once page loads?
body: <p>I just registered a new domain name and set it to point to an AWS EC2 instance. When I enter the domain name, it loads fine, but then as soon as the page loads, the browser address text is updated to show the ip address (replaces the domain name). I cloned this EC2 from another server where this was not happening and where I hadn't done any non-default Apache2 server settings other than URL shortening to remove .html and .php file extensions. Any ideas what could be happening here? I tried it on multiple computers and multiple browsers. </p>
