Custom Domain TXT Record Not Verifying for www.pistakam.co.in

I'm trying to add a custom domain www.pistakam.co.in to my RestroAi service in the production environment. The CNAME record is verifying successfully, but the TXT verification record is stuck in an unverified state.

Details:

  • Project: steadfast-compassion
  • Service: RestroAi
  • Domain:www.pistakam.co.in
  • Environment: production

Current DNS Records in GoDaddy:

  1. CNAME Record:
    • Name: www
    • Type: CNAME
    • Value: c3820b8i.up.railway.app
    • Status: Verified in Railway
  2. TXT Record:
    • Name: _railway-verify.www
    • Type: TXT
    • Value: b8d09d582b66c27aee2e65c8016f880bb1a22894d5a87e8211798413b4d256e1
    • Status: Unverified in Railway

DNS Verification:

I've confirmed the TXT record is live and correct using nslookup:

nslookup -type=TXT _railway-verify.www.pistakam.co.in
_railway-verify.www.pistakam.co.in text = "b8d09d582b66c27aee2e65c8016f880bb1a22894d5a87e8211798413b4d256e1"

The DNS record exists and matches exactly what Railway is expecting. The CNAME verifies fine, but the TXT record remains unverified despite being correctly configured in GoDaddy and live in DNS.

What I've tried:

  • Removed and re-added the custom domain in Railway (generated fresh records)
  • Verified the TXT record value multiple times in GoDaddy
  • Confirmed DNS propagation with nslookup
  • Waited 10+ minutes for verification

Request: Please help me troubleshoot why the TXT record verification is failing when the DNS record is confirmed to be live and correct.

Your TXT content is malformed. It should start with railway-verify=.
