show me a screenshot of the domains in railway?
whos your dns provider
bluehost
then bluehost needs to give you an ssl cert for the domain with www
I just want if anybody types www it will redirect to ssdo.org.pk, is it possible?
yes, that has nothing to do with railway though
bluehost doesnt provide ssl certs to subdomain redirects
so youll need to figure that situation out with bluehost
OK thank you
@Brody my domain is not subdomain, its a primary domain
@Brody Bluehost told me that "I have checked the A record is not pointing to Bluehost which is pointing to 104.196.232.237 but your hosting account IP address is 162.214.227.236 . So you have to install the SSL certificate from there end. where your website IP address is pointing."
www is a subdomain
www.ssdo.org.pk is not subdomain its primary domain
not subdomain
the www part is a subdomain
you have set the cname for "www.ssdo.org.pk" as "ssdofront-production.up.railway.app" without adding "www.ssdo.org.pk" to the railway domains list, once you do this, "www.ssdo.org.pk" will have a cert, but will not redirect, to redirect you will need to figure that out with bluehost since you have that root domain with them and for that "www.ssdo.org.pk" must not be in the railway domain list
@Brody this is the screenshot of bluehost dashboard and dns records, Is there any misconfiguration I did?
@Brody should I enter @ instead of www in cname or in A record should I enter www.ssdo.org.pk instead of @, please guide me, Railway provided me with the name "ssdo" and domain "ssdo-production.up.railway.app"
Please don't directly ping any conductors / team, final warning

How to redirect your Domain Name.
This video shows you how to set up a redirect for your domain. This is all done inside the Bluehost control panel.
Thanks for watching! We welcome all constructive feedback and comments.
Thank you
theres still a chance bluehost wont give that www subdomain a ssl cert, in that case you might just wanna move to cloudflare, bluehost is mid ngl
yes its doing the same,cloudflare is free?
should be for what youre doing, dont quote me on that though
Ok thank you
just transfer your domain to cloudflare
OK thanks
I have transfer my domain to cloudflare but still facing the issue whenever I type "www" before the root domain ssdo.org.pk it shows not found message with black screen
?
show me a screenshot of the cloudflare dns records page?
your root domain need to be a cname
you mean I have to enter @ instead of www or sth else?
for ssdo.org.pk you have an ip set, it neeeds to be a cname
you mean I have to enter another cname with name "ssdo.org.pk" and content 104.196.232.237, please mention how to do this , I am totally new to this cname ,A record etc, thanks
you should not be using ip addresses of your railway apps at all
In front of A record I have used IP ADDRESS Of Railway
i.e 104.196..... you can see that
you should not be using ip addresses of your railway apps at all
I am using IP ADDRESS OF railway infront of A record as clear from the above file
dont do that, as ive said twice
use a cname
should i delete the A record?
yes
with railwy ip address in front
Thanks
show me new screenshot now please
OK
is it ok now?
looks fine, show me a screenshot of the railway domains
lol activate windows
But now if i visit www.ssdo.org.pk it shows following error
add
www.ssdo.org.pk to that
^
you mean on railway I have to add www infront of ssdo.org.pk?
yes
once done, show screenshot
for this first I have to remove ssdo.org.pk because on railway edit option is not there?
and what happend to the live site?
is it again go for propogation
you just needed to click
+ custom domainOK
yes good
nope dont mess with that, you where good in your previous screenshot
now add a new dns entry in cloudflare
type: CNAME
name: www.ssdo
target: ssdofront-production.up.railway.app
OK thanks
updated my text, its name: www.ssdo
whats that little triangle boy say
cloudflare doesn't support 4L subs
you can do 4.3.2.tld
i think
why do you need www.ssdo anyways
this hostname is not covered by the certificate
alex speak english
yeah
sorry
cloudflare doesn't allow you to do sub.sub.domain.tld
yes
you can't have that because their SSL cert won't cover it
yes
my proposed solution is don't do it
Stack Overflow
How Do I Create Sub-Sub-Domain on Cloudflare DNS?
I've let cloudflare manage the DNS of my example.com
I have created id.example.com for country's specific customer. I've done it by created cname id with alias example.com
I need to create customer
otherwise you got these gamers
but you've gotta issue your own SSL certs and disable proxy
because you can't have
*.*.domain.tld as the scope of an SSL certbasically here i pakistan every body while entering the url first enter www
its against the rules
brahj
are you hosting on your own server?
alex said no
can you put your own cert
oh its one of those funky double tlds
yeah
glgl
FFFF
you can disable proxying
and let railway issue the cert
tyeaH I meantioned that
railway will autoissue
for the CNAME
i think in about 4 more hours i could have solved it
and then cloudflare will just cname to it
brody 😭
ig that might work
im sorry but dont spend 4 hours on a help thread
am bored
i will give you stuff to do
sec
@Amjad point
www.ssdo.org.pk to the same cname that railway tells you to
disable the cloudflare proxy
then railway will handle the rest
bet
OK you mean I disable all cloudflare account and change my nameserver again to bluehost?
no 🙂
No!
Just disable Cloudflare's proxy in front of your website.
OK change it to DNS ONLY MODE
Yes
Big thanks for this help
flip orange switch
flipped
screenshot?
looks good, does it work?
F
Maybe it's just taking a bit to propagate?
doubt
cloudflare is instant
I'm using 1.1.1.1 as well so i should get it before everyone else

www.ssdo.ssdo.org.pk
i was right initially ffs
anguish
railway messed up the parsing
made me doubt myself
wacky domain tbh
???
why is the root ssdo.org.pk
org.pk is the tld
funky tld remember
like co.uk
@Amjad change name from www.ssdo to just www
oh my god bruh
ssdo is the name of the NGO
so is "www" just the first level subd?
yes
who do we report the incorrect domain parsing in the ui to?
YOU mean I enable the proxy again and change the name to just www
no proxy
cringe double domain

it would work fine
what about cloudflare? any change needed, sorry I cannot understand ^?
