hi, please tell me if roissystudiotest.ca is the 'real' domain name?
It is not registered...[1] and, 'ping' is for an IP number, nothing to do with a domain name... when you use 'ping' and you ping domain.name then, your system does a dns lookup, to first find IP number for domain.name - and then 'pings' that ip number... so, 'ping' is not useful for apache/web issues - except maybe to see if a domain host resolves and accepts icmp...
