Hi there!
I have a website coded in Flask with Python. It was working for many months when I originally coded the project last year, and when I opened it recently, I keep getting the “Hmm… We couldn’t reach this Repl. Make sure this Repl has a port open and is ready to receive HTTP traffic.” error on the site. (The console shows “172.31.196.1 - - [21/May/2023 15:16:23] “GET / HTTP/1.1” 200”.) I have plenty of cycles. I’ve changed the port to everything suggested on forums and even changing the .replit file to have a bash.sh command, and nothing will change.
The domain I have is promptl.com, which the Replit Flask/Python file is linked to. My code is linked here if you need access to it.
Please help. Thanks in advance!
So, to confirm, my custom domain is having an issue (as well as everyone else with custom domains)? And replit is aware of it and trying to fix? Is there anything else I can do? What about a TXT file alongside the CNAME/A record that someone in that thread mentioned? It seems that this would be a much larger problem that more people would be complaining about…
Hey @zdcoder13!
This issue seems to be different from the DNS issue mentioned earlier. We will investigate this issue and will follow up as soon as we have an update.

@ShaneAtReplit That would be a huge help, thanks!
Just to confirm, your webserver is running on 0.0.0.0? The port shouldn’t matter. It is important that your webserver is hosted on 0.0.0.0 so that it can be forwarded publicly to the repl.co URL and your custom domain.

The port can’t be 0.0.0.0. Is your website hosted at 0.0.0.0?

My bad! Yes, 0.0.0.0 is the host. Am I missing something as to why my website isn’t running?
This looks like it might be an issue on our end. I’ll send this to the team so we can investigate!

Sounds great! Thank you so much for your help @ShaneAtReplit and @QwertyQwerty88!

I don’t think the server works at all as I’m not able to access it from https://promptl-live.zdcoder13.repl.co. Does the web server work when you run it locally or on another service?
I have a version (the same version as the one I have on Replit) that successfully runs locally.
Understood, thank you. We will continue to investigate and will follow up once we have an update.
