Domain stuck on x-railway-fallback after a delete+recreate

Looking for a help if anyone has

seen this.

The domain api.getomaka.com returns the Fastly fallback page

(404 "Application not found") even though:

✅ DNS resolves to the correct requiredValue (verified on

1.1.1.1 + 8.8.8.8)

✅ The customDomain is registered on the service per

domains(...) GraphQL query (status DNS_RECORD_STATUS_PROPAGATED

before I turned on Cloudflare proxy)

✅ Same service responds 200 on its other custom domain

(api.ikanos.ro) and on

ecosystem-public-api-production.up.railway.app

✅ TLS cert is valid (Let's Encrypt, fresh)

✅ Cloudflare proxy ON — same setup as the working domain

✅ Service deployed twice successfully after the rebind

Timeline:

  • ~21:57 UTC yesterday: I deleted the original Project that owned this domain and let ecosystem-public-api (different project, same team) pick it up.
  • ~07:09 UTC today: noticed Fastly was still routing to the old per-domain CNAME. Did customDomainDelete + customDomainCreate via API → got a fresh requiredValue.
  • ~07:10 UTC: updated Cloudflare CNAME to the new target.
  • It's now 09:00+ UTC and still 404. x-railway-fallback: true.

Looks like the host-based routing entry on Fastly never got

republished after the rebind. Anything I can do client-side to

force a refresh, or do I need someone with internal access to push

it?

Thanks!

That 404 page is Railway's, not Fastly's

Could you screenshot the service's custom domains section and the DNS records that Railway rquested?
