Hello Railway Team,
I'm experiencing an issue with my custom domain robotcoingame.com for my project.
I have successfully added robotcoingame.com as a custom domain in my project settings on Railway. The platform instructed me to add a CNAME record for the root domain (@) pointing to z19zidj4.up.railway.app.
However, my domain registrar, GoDaddy, does not allow adding a CNAME record for the root domain (@) due to conflicts with existing NS and SOA records, which cannot be deleted or modified. This prevents me from following your exact instructions for the root domain.
Despite this:
I was able to successfully configure a CNAME record for
www.robotcoingame.comin GoDaddy, pointing toz19zidj4.up.railway.app.When I visit
https://www.robotcoingame.comin my browser, it now correctly hits Railway's servers, displaying a "Not Found" page with "The train has not arrived at the station" message, which indicates successful DNS resolution to your platform.
However, in my Railway project settings, the status for robotcoingame.com is currently "Waiting for DNS update").
My goal is to have my project content displayed correctly when accessing robotcoingame.com (or www.robotcoingame.com if necessary, redirecting to the root).
Could you please advise on how to properly configure my domain robotcoingame.com to display my project, given GoDaddy's limitation regarding CNAME records for the root domain? Is there an alternative method (e.g., specific A records) I should use, or another way to handle this on Railway's side?
Thank you for your assistance.
