custom domain important

Hi,

I am trying to connect a custom domain to my Railway frontend service (HTML/CSS/JS static site).

My setup:

  • Frontend deployed on Railway
  • Custom domain: itlearningbh.com
  • DNS managed via Cloudflare
  • CNAME records correctly pointing to Railway domain
  • Both root and www domains are configured

However, I am facing issues:

  1. The domain sometimes returns "502 Bad Gateway"
  2. Sometimes I get "Application failed to respond"
  3. SSL certificate issues appear for www subdomain (ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID)
  4. I have already set Cloudflare DNS to "DNS only" (not proxied)
  5. My app runs a static server using serve and listens on process.env.PORT

I have verified:

  • DNS records are correct
  • Railway deployment is active
  • Application runs successfully on Railway default domain

But the custom domain is not stable and does not properly resolve.

Could you please help me verify the correct setup for:

  • Custom domain configuration on Railway for a static frontend
  • Proper handling of www + root domain
  • SSL certificate provisioning for custom domain

Thank you.

Re 502, as you see this only sometimes, do you have serverless enabled?


And could you list the domain(s) affected?


oops sorry


Your service itself, is seemingly failing to respond?
