> The problem stems from Google Apps for Your Domain....here is how I
> fixed the issue of the "Another blog is
> already hosted at this address." error.

> 1. Go to your domain registrar, (I needed reset everything to their
> default settings) and create (or change if already existing) a CNAME
> named "www" and point it to "ghs.google.com"

> 2. Logged into Google Apps for Your Domain or create a new account if
> you do not have one. (I had decided to set up an account AFTER
> originally setting up my custom domain on blogger.com....this
> inadvertently led to all of my problems)

> 3. Once logged in, from the "Dashboard" choose to ONLY add "Domain web
> pages" and click the "Add selected services" button.

> 4. Use the CNAME subdomain that has been giving the message "Another
> blog is already hosted at this address." error in Blogger as the
> address you want to publish to. (In my case "www")

> 5. From here I chose to create a simple "Google Pages" webpage just to
> confirm that my address (http://www.theviralweb.com) was indeed
> working.

> 6. Back on the Dashboard of Google Apps for Your Domain, choose to
> remove the "Domain web pages service"

> 7. Go to your blog on blogger.com and change the custom address to the
> problematic address (In my case "www.theviralweb.com"), blogger should
> now allow it.

> 8. In my case, when I would click the "View Blog" link...blogger now
> took me to the Google Pages page I had just created in Google Apps for
> Your Domain.

> 9. This step my be redundant and actually just require time for the
> DNS to refresh, but I logged back into Google Apps for Your Domain and
> proceeded to add the "Domain web pages service" back, but this time I
> used a different subdomain (not "www" but instead I used "blog"). I
> never bothered to set up a CNAME in my registrar settings as I was
> only attempting to get Google Apps for Your Domain to "let go" of the
> "www" subdomain.

> 10. All of these actions soon caused the "Google 404 not found" page
> to appear for my site address.

> 11. I then proceeded to again remove the "Domain web pages service".

> 12. After only a few moments of waiting for the DNS to catch up, my
> domain (http://www.theviralweb.com) was now working and opening my
> blog.

> I would again like to thank gergely.takacs for his information, and I
> wish I could say that I have repeated all these steps to confirm they
> are correct....but I would rather not loose control of my domain
