My custom domain www.hfh-crm.co.za has been stuck on "Waiting for DNS update" since Wednesday (it's now Saturday) — the TXT verification is not completing, even though the DNS records are correct and globally propagated.
What's working:
CNAME verification succeeded (shows verified/green).
The app is deployed and running fine on the Railway-provided domain.
What's stuck:
The TXT verification for _railway-verify.www.hfh-crm.co.za has not completed after 3+ days.
DNS records (at my registrar, domains.co.za — DNS managed there, no proxy):
CNAME: www.hfh-crm.co.za → u6vv6ddh.up.railway.app
TXT: _railway-verify.www.hfh-crm.co.za → railway-verify=765973b56369bc752b22d707e9467f29567099cfec2cce2e1462b88e1219f56d
Verification that the records are correct and propagated:
Confirmed globally propagated via whatsmydns.net — the TXT value shows correctly across international resolvers.
The CNAME points directly to the Railway target (u6vv6ddh.up.railway.app), not to my apex domain.
Host format confirmed with my registrar's support: they use fully-qualified names in the Host field, so there is no domain-doubling.
Since the records are correct and propagated but the TXT verification remains stuck, this looks like it may need a manual re-check on Railway's side. Could you please force a fresh re-verification of the domain? I've seen other threads where the records were correct and a Railway employee re-checking resolved it.
Thank you.

Your DNS records are correctly configured and propagated, but the verification workflow stalled before it could pick them up. We have started a certificate re-issuance for www.hfh-crm.co.za, which will re-run verification and issue the TLS certificate - this may take a few minutes to complete.

Thank that worked, and I can confirm the domain is now propagated. Thanks again.
