I have two issues. My CNAME has an Amber Triangle for my domain without www. And my domain with www shows green check mark but the SSL certificate has not been issued. My domain is hosted on GoDaddy.

All the answers given already are helpful, but a permanent solution to your problem whilst also being able to continue using Godaddy, is for you to add the www CNAME to Godaddy and then do a domain forwarding such that wanderthe50.com will permanently redirect to www.[wanderthe50.com](http://wanderthe50.com). So use these simple steps to get it done:

  1. Log in to your GoDaddy account
  2. Go to My Products → Domains → Manage DNS
  3. Scroll to Forwarding
  4. Under Domain, click Add
  5. Set:
    • Forward to: https://www.wanderthe50.com
    • Redirect type: Permanent (301)
    • Forwarding settings: Forward only

For myleaseiq.com, public DNS shows an A record (not a CNAME) pointing to a non-Railway IP address, so traffic is not reaching us - root/apex domains cannot have CNAME records per the DNS specification, and GoDaddy does not support ALIAS/ANAME records as a workaround. For www.myleaseiq.com, the CNAME currently points to an outdated Railway target and needs to be updated to the value shown in your service's domain settings.

My Issue is not with Myleaseiq.com. It is with wanderthe50.com

For wanderthe50.com (the root domain), DNS currently shows A records pointing to non-Railway IPs and no CNAME record, so traffic is not reaching us. GoDaddy does not support CNAME flattening or ALIAS records at the root/apex level, so you would need to either switch your domain's nameservers to a provider that supports it (such as Cloudflare) or use only the www subdomain. For www.wanderthe50.com, the CNAME is pointing to an outdated Railway target (ejqmbg1f) but the required target is 78m8n5t4.up.railway.app, so you'll need to update that CNAME record in GoDaddy. That said, our system currently shows the www certificate as valid, but updating the CNAME to the correct target will ensure traffic routes properly.

wanderthe50.com is pointing to ejqmbg1f because this is what Railway provided to configure the DNS record: CNAME

@

ejqmbg1f.up.railway.appwww.wanderthe50.com has 78m8n5t4.up.railway.app configured in the DNS record because that is what was provided. I only used what was provided to me from Railway. Should I add the same setup for wanderthe50 as I did for www.wanderthe50?

hey, you have two things to fix, first go to godaddy and update your www.wanderthe50.com cname record to point to 78m8n5t4.up.railway.app (it's currently pointing to an old railway target)

second for the root domain wanderthe50.com, godaddy doesn't support the type of dns record railway needs at the apex level, so your best option is to move your dns to cloudflare (free, you keep godaddy as registrar, just change nameservers). cloudflare supports cname flattening which fixes this
