After renaming my project today and adding a couple of custom domains to
two services, the Railway edge returns 404 "Application not found" with
x-railway-fallback: true on the custom domains. Hitting the Railway-
generated bridge hostname directly returns the same 404, so the issue is
not DNS/cert — looks like the edge router has no service mapping for the
bridge hostnames.
- Custom domains: hit the bridge hostname x.up.railway.app shown in the
domain dialog — 404 "Application not found" with x-railway-fallback: true
- Same services via their Railway-provided default domains: 200, everything
serves fine
- DNS verified correct at the authoritative nameserver
Already tried:
- removing + re-adding the custom domain (got a new bridge hostname,
updated DNS accordingly — new bridge also 404)
- regenerating the default Railway domains (new ones work, custom ones
still 404)
- redeploying both services multiple times
- waiting ~60 minutes
Most likely trigger was a project rename earlier today (edit: yes, the
renamed project is the one showing this problem).
I can share project ID, service IDs, affected bridge hostnames, and
Fastly request IDs by DM — they're logged-in-account specific, don't
want them in a public post. Could someone from staff take a look?
Thanks.

Did you add the TXT record to your domain?

The requirement for TXT records was added recently to prevent the hijacking of domains.
