Activate SSL on my custom domain

Hello, I bought the domain apocolinks.com at DreamHost.com, this domain already has an active SSL certificate, but for some reason I can make the certificate I have work with the custom domain that I have put in my Railway project, do you have an idea? How could I solve this problem, I would really appreciate it.
Solution:
remove the domain from railway and add it back, do not touch anything dns related

railway handles SSL for you, and dreamhost does not support root level cnames, you would need to use cloudflare's nameservers

I didn't, buy the domain a month or more ago, but until recently I was trying to use a custom domain on railway

when do they remove the SLL after you close the service? I still have it on m domain after pointing my domain cname to a not railway app. keep having SSL_ERROR_BAD_CERT_DOMAIN and certificate Common Name *.up.railway.app
