The root domain tycoonpicks.com has two issues: its CNAME is pointing to tycoonpicks.com.railway.app but needs to point to aucj4y9o.up.railway.app, and the ownership verification TXT record is missing. You need to add a TXT record with host _railway-verify and value railway-verify=1fe6879edf8ee103bdb95d830a31fe73157877555db69e726f6d3c16a47b21d1, and update the CNAME to aucj4y9o.up.railway.app. The SSL certificate cannot be issued until both records are correctly configured.

Okay i made those changes but again tycoonpicks.com goes to 404 and www.tycoonpicks.com goes to Tycoon Picks — Expert Sports Consulting & Picks Education

Do i need to add a verify record for the domain without the www ?

Your root domain tycoonpicks.com is resolving to an A record (151.101.2.15) that is not Railway infrastructure, which is why you're getting a 404. Your DNS provider (name.com) may not properly support CNAME records at the root/apex level. You'll need to either remove that A record and ensure name.com supports CNAME flattening, or switch your nameservers to a provider like Cloudflare that does. Additionally, the TXT verification record at _railway-verify for tycoonpicks.com is still missing, so no SSL certificate can be issued until that is added.

How do i remove that A record if i purchase tycoonpicks.com from railway? it only lets me add DNS records and i only see the 2 cname and one txt no A record.

At this point how to i transfer this domain out of railway? I should of just gotten this domain through godaddy. I can't even change the default NS if i wanted to use cloudfare.....

Can a real live person help me????????

As mentioned several times above, you need to change your DNS records. Your root CNAME record is currently resolving to jeremiahthetycoon-production.up.railway.app, though it needs to resolve to the CNAME record provided by Railway when adding a custom domain. Furthermore, you currently do not have a TXT record set as well.

I just swap it back since the agent kept stating it's the wrong one. I'll swap it to aucj4y9o.up.railway.app - however this is not showing up under my project for public network jeremiahthetycoon-production.up.railway.app.

I'l delete the TXT record now and swap it back to aucj4y9o.up.railway.app - however waited 30-45 mins propagation (Normally is minutes) and still nothing, in the public network the www.tycoonpicks.com resolved and it's good the tycoonpicks.com it's still "Waiting for DNS propagation"

Done

Non-authoritative answer:

Name: aucj4y9o.up.railway.app

Address: 151.101.2.15

Aliases: tycoonpicks.com

Is it possible to set NS to cloudcare for a domain purchase in railway?

IIRC not at the moment. However, the team is working towards adding a UI for this.

(Add the TXT record, when I looked up your DNS records just now, I couldn't find it.)
