How am i supposed to handle SSL certificates for a custom domain?
ProjectID: e3ab128d-3a5e-4830-a58a-4c6c0991db6a
Hello, i am a real noob about DNS and SSL certificates for https, so this question might be dumb.
Basically:
- I bought a domain at hostinger.
- Added domain name ref to railway
- Added railway alias(CNAME) to domain management
After some hours, i can now access my service through the domain, but it is a HTTP connections rather than a HTTPS connections i would get if i used a generated domain from railway.
Questions:
Am i supposed to do something to enable HTTPS via my custom domain?
Although i can acess the service via the domain, it shows Waiting for DNS update in railway, will SSL certification be configured after DNS is detected?

Sure:
example.com (solved so i changed it)
hostinger doesnt support root level cnames, you would need to use cloudflares nameservers instead
What do you mean? Sorry as i said i am a real noob, don't know what nameservers are
follow their guide
