I've removed and added the cname record several times. https://api.fritter.dev resolves but returns a 502 railway error

{
    "status": "error",
    "code": 502,
    "message": "Application failed to respond",
    "request_id": "g1EyeaMoQY-zM-uuvt8T-Q_3336177264"

Oh it looks to be a bug

#

I just set the port even though it was already set to 3000

#

Seemed to fix the issue

Hey @harsh schooner

Looks like you didn't have a port configured on your custom public domain. I went ahead and fixed that for you. o7Rave

We do some magic detection to add the port if your service is running, but I think you might have added your custom domain before your service was deployed.

So I set the port from 3000 -> 3000 and it fixed it

cinder pilot Apr 11, 2025, 4:21 PM

#

No the port wasn't set at all

harsh schooner Apr 11, 2025, 4:21 PM

#

Oh apologies

cinder pilot Apr 11, 2025, 4:22 PM

#

I ran into this problem too because of the statefulness of the magic detection. No worries

cinder pilot Hey <@109432097646641152> Looks like you didn't have a port configured on your...

Just for context, the app was already deployed and then I set the custom domain.
