How do I add a domain name
I purchased a domain name for my ubuntu based server.
If I use http based redirect, I can enter the domain, the site looks good, but the name of the domain changes to the IP address if I click a button.
If I use a frame based redirect, nothing happens if I click on a button.
The domain company said that there might be a problem in with the site ("the forwarded site does not allow frame redirection").
What can it be?

I would check your DNS settings. If you are using Linode's DNS then I would look through this guide first:

Sorry for being slow, but I added a domain in the Domain tab, but still nothing happens @LouWestin.
What do I have to do in the DNS manager? All those records are confusing.
This link in the guide goes into more detail about what steps to take, what records to set, etc. Most likely you’ll need to set your A record.
