Custom domain certificate stuck in "validating ownership" for 48+ hours.

Project: math-adventures, service: web

Domain: math.homeschoolingexperts.org

CNAME is set to the required value (j91shq9g.up.railway.app) and Railway

shows the DNS record as propagated. Let's Debug http-01 check passes, no

CAA records, plan is Hobby. Redeploy and re-adding the domain did not help.

Please reissue the certificate.

The certificate is waiting on domain ownership verification, and that is failing because the TXT verification record is missing. The CNAME is correct, but we can't find the required TXT record in public DNS.

At your DNS provider, add a TXT record with host _railway-verify.math and this exact value: railway-verify=7ac8cff4ef4df61ba85a5c8f77918a8b13cdce08a5453868d0e1f8450283b624. Re-adding the domain generates a new token each time, so make sure the value matches the one now shown for the domain in the web service's Settings, Networking section.

Once that record propagates, verification and certificate issuance continue on their own. A reissue won't help until then.
