Our custom domain blog.themcmurry.group (domain ID 598a044b-072f-4ea9-ad7b-7760d94484fe) on the seo-ai service has been stuck in certificate ownership validation for three days and never re-checks on its own.
railway domain status blog.themcmurry.group reports:
Verified: no
Certificate status: CERTIFICATE_STATUS_TYPE_VALIDATING_OWNERSHIP
Created: 2026-08-21T16:21:02
Updated: 2026-08-21T16:21:02
The Created and Updated timestamps are identical and it is now Aug 24, so the validation has not re-run since the domain was created.
The required DNS records are live and correct. They match exactly what railway domain status lists as required:
CNAME blog oop4dep4.up.railway.app
TXT _railway-verify.blog railway-verify=7f0a45b968732c51b3d939a09caa45d40b937172cb37adef2cd436912f65cd24
I have confirmed both records resolve correctly on 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8, and 9.9.9.9, as a single clean record each, with no duplicates.
railway domain certificate retry blog.themcmurry.group returns: "Certificate retry is only available after certificate issuance fails. Current status: CERTIFICATE_STATUS_TYPE_VALIDATING_OWNERSHIP." So I cannot retry, because it is stuck validating rather than failed.
Likely cause: the domain was originally added while the DNS was proxied through Cloudflare (orange cloud), so the first validation could not see the records. The record is now DNS-only and correct, but the validation appears frozen and is not re-querying.
Could you please manually re-trigger ownership validation for this domain, or force the current attempt to fail so that certificate retry unlocks? No DNS change is needed on our side, since the records already match your requirements.

Your DNS records are confirmed correct and the verification TXT value matches, but the certificate validation workflow never re-ran after the initial attempt failed (likely due to the earlier Cloudflare proxy). We have started a certificate re-issuance for this domain, which should complete verification and issue the certificate within a few minutes.
