Project Settings > Domains | Invalid Configuration

I deployed a project on Vercel.
But recently, I noticed that in “Project Settings > Domains”, my domain’s configuration is invalid.

In another project of mine, my domain’s configuration is valid.

A few days ago, my first project also had a valid configuration.
I don’t know what happened?

I think I mistakenly added a custom domain configuration for stack-overflow-nextjs14.app . However, the default domain stack-overflow-nextjs14.vercel.app should be configured automatically?

Hi, @sofiane-abou-abderra!

I went on DNS Checker for your domain stack-overflow-nextjs14.app and it looks like you don’t have an A Record or CNAME Record set-up.

I’ve linked the domains docs for you to look at!

Hi @pawlean,

Well, I didn’t have to set up any A Record or CNAME Record for my other project and I do have a valid configuration.

So, why this project doesn’t have any A Record or CNAME Record set-up?

EDIT: By the way, I’m not looking to buy a custom domain.

Configuration for *.vercel.app domains happens automatically because Vercel controls the settings for the vercel.app domain. Using a custom domain requires some extra steps.

It looks like stack-overflow-nextjs14.app hasn’t been registered yet. You can buy your custom domain with Vercel or buy a domain with an external registrar.

When you own the domain, you can follow the steps here to add it to your project

Sorry, I meant:

I don’t want to buy a custom domain

I would like to get back the automatic vercel.app configuration to the valid status.

However, it is currently not showing up at all in the domains settings.

Ah, sorry! I think I understand what you mean now.

Do you mean that you want the *.vercel.app back? Because it looks like you’ve actually got a custom domain (stack-overflow-nextjs14.app)…

Could you head to your domain settings and then delete the custom domain?

Something like this?

Yes, I want the *.vercel.app back as well as the domains configuration in the settings, like this project of mine:

Currently, I have no way to configure my domain, as you can see below:

If you removed the *.vercel.app domain from your project, you can add it again by typing it into the text box and clicking the Add button.

I added a new *.vercel.app domain for my project and the configuration is valid.
The problem was that the name of my domain was already taken by another account.
