Hi,

Thanks for reaching out.

Start here: https://docs.railway.com/guides/public-networking#custom-domains

Thanks!

following your doc, doesn't seems like works, please take a look at the attached screenshot. please advice. thanks!

Hello, can you give me some feedback on the domain issue?

Hello,

A bit further down on the page Rahul sent we say that AWS Route 53 is not supported for root level domains with Railway, since Route 53 does not support CNAMEs at the root, that's a problem because we only provide a CNAME.

You would need to use nameservers that do support CNAMEs at the root such as Cloudflare.

how to fix this domain issue then? transfer it to cloudflare, or godaddy whoever support CNAME?

or which one you suggest? then, I will do the transfer and add your CNAME, by the way, can you reply with the CNAME(s) thanks

Cloudflare is recommended.

Once you add your domain to your Railway services you are given the CNAME value to use.

Cloudflare host a domain $20/month? is that right? can you recommend something generic, cuz, we are only want to host a domain and use CNAME.

Cloudflare's Nameservers are free, they do not require a paid plan.

can you give me a bit details or send me a direct URL to get their? thanks

what is the TYPE CNAME's name and Target, its confused to add them to the cloudflare. please advice. thanks

You add your domain to Railway and then you will be given your CNAME value to use.

is that possible to register a brand new domain to use through railway?

It's not, we are not a domain registry.

Okay, I transferred my domain to cloudflare, can you guide me what is the next step, please make the simple and clear indication. dont be too complecated. thanks

Please see our docs - https://docs.railway.com/guides/public-networking#custom-domains

above screenshot is from cloudflare. it looks our domain is actived, and CNAME is set too.

site still down, any advice?

also, how can we enable https by adding SSL certificate?

Hello,

Given you had previously set the domain up incorrectly you would need to remove the domain from railway, and remove the DNS settings from Cloudflare, then add the domain back to Railway.

We handle SSL certificates for you, provided the domain is setup correctly.

Okay, I made change by remove custom domain from railway and delete CNAME from cloudflare, then, add custom doamin in railwway, that generates a new url for CNAME: 5hhzw6cu.up.railway.app, then, I added it to cloudfare.

is there anything still missing?

how long gonna to see the site live?

thanks

Next, please see this docs section -

https://docs.railway.com/guides/public-networking#provider-specific-instructions

can't find SSL related information from the link you provided.

1. Enable Full SSL/TLS encryption in Cloudflare:
   • Go to your domain on Cloudflare.
   • Navigate to SSL/TLS -> Overview.
   • Select Full, or Full (strict).

Have you selected Full?

go to your domain on cloudflare => yes

navigate to SSL/TSL Overview. => I do not have that option

You absolutely do.

https://developers.cloudflare.com/ssl/origin-configuration/ssl-modes/full/#process

Full mode now is on. what is the next?

I need both two work: https://expenserepo.com, and https://www.expenserepo.com thanks!

Both work for me.

www.expenserepo.com redirects to expenserepo.com

So no problems there!

does https works for you too?

Yep!

I have seen that too...

thanks
