Hi Railway team ,
I’m facing an issue with a custom domain setup and would appreciate any guidance.
Situation:
- I previously used my domain happychild.in on Vercel.
- I completely deleted the Vercel project and removed the domain from Vercel.
- Now I have fully migrated the project to Railway.
Current status:
- My Railway default URL works perfectly and www.happychild.in:
https://backend-production-0d93.up.railway.appwww.happychild.in - But when I open:
https://happychild.inI get:404: DEPLOYMENT_NOT_FOUND
DNS Setup:
I’m using Cloudflare and I’ve configured:
happychild.in→ CNAME → 7ufpt70s.up.railway.appwww.happychild.in→ CNAME → b9uz0xyd.up.railway.app- Proxy status is DNS only (grey cloud)
I already:
- Deleted old Hostinger nameservers
- Purged Cloudflare cache
- Re-added domain inside Railway → Settings → Domains
Railway now shows Setup complete, but the domain still throws DEPLOYMENT_NOT_FOUND.
Suspicion:
It feels like the domain might still be cached/associated somewhere from the old Vercel deployment, or Cloudflare is holding old routing.
Question:
Is there any internal Railway step required to “force refresh” or reattach a domain that was previously used on another platform?
Any help from the team or community would be greatly appreciated
