Initial Cloud Functions edge domain stays stuck on "router_rule_not_found" if first deployment fail

Environment: Appwrite Cloud (Region: sfo / Edge Network *.appwrite.network)
Component: Functions (Git / VCS deployment)

Description

When connecting a Git repository to a Function, if the very first deployment fails during build/compilation, the auto-generated branch domain (e.g. <hash>.appwrite.network, Type: Deployed from main) remains permanently broken on 404 router_rule_not_found, even after subsequent deployments succeed and are marked Active.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create an Appwrite function connected to a Git repository.
2. Push a commit that fails to build (e.g. missing dependency or build error).
3. Notice that Appwrite creates an initial domain in the Domains tab (e.g. <hash>.appwrite.network marked as Verified).
4. Fix the code and push a new commit. The build succeeds and the deployment becomes Active.
5. Test the function internally via the Executions tab ("Execute now") -> Returns 200 OK.
6. Visit the original auto-generated domain -> Still returns 404 router_rule_not_found with header x-edge-rule-cache: miss.
7. Add a new domain via + Add domain -> Immediately returns 200 OK with x-edge-rule-cache: hit.

Expected Behavior:

When a new Git deployment succeeds and is marked Active, any existing auto-generated Git branch domain (Deployed from main) should automatically rebind to the active deployment and provision the edge routing rule, rather than remaining orphaned to the initial failed build.

Headers Comparison:

• Original domain (stuck):
  HTTP/2 404
x-edge-rule-cache: miss
{"type":"router_rule_not_found","message":"This page is empty, but you can make it yours.","code":404}

• Newly created domain (working):
  HTTP/2 200 OK
x-edge-rule-cache: hit
x-edge-runtime-cache: hit
x-appwrite-deployment-id: <active-id>

Can you share the headers when do via the execute tab as well

I am suspecting the deployment id

firewall is enabled in your function?

nope. i have not created any firewalls nor do i see anyhing firewall related in my function settings

Can you DM me your project id and email/account id

i dont think i'm the only one with this edge case. simply delete the appwrite subdomain and adding it back fixes it.
you can try it in your own account

I am from the appwrite team 🙂 so its safe to share with me and just the account id or email
I am asking it to find out the reasons in your case or if I can find anything to help this sort out

ok. sent a request
