Hello, I bought the domain apocolinks.com at DreamHost.com, this domain already has an active SSL certificate, but for some reason I can make the certificate I have work with the custom domain that I have put in my Railway project, do you have an idea? How could I solve this problem, I would really appreciate it.

railway handles SSL for you, and dreamhost does not support root level cnames, you would need to use cloudflare's nameservers

keep having SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN and certificate Common Name
