Hello,

I have a question about adding custom domain. I have followed instruction from the documentation but still app-open.io does not point to the deployed application. Can you please advice?

Screens attached.

Hey, your domain in question's nameservers are pointing to Hostinger. Hostinger does not support CNAME flattening for your root/apex domain and will therefore not work.

Please set your domain's nameservers to Cloudflare's, the documentation for setting up your domain with Cloudflare can be found at https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/zone-setups/full-setup/setup/. Afterwards, you will be able to set up your apex domain with Railway using a CNAME record.

Hi!

Thank you for this hint! It helped a lot. I have moved DNS management into Cloudflare and also had to change the CNAME there for the main domain to point to the railway. It works!

You can close this thread!
