did you initially deploy from a template

yes I did deployed intialy using a template after that I have changed the github repo

you must have followed the flow that causes the bug -
remove repo -> deploy -> add new repo -> deploy - works
remove repo -. add new repo -> deploy - doesn't work

the second flow is the more efficient path, but until this gets fixed you would want to use the first flow, that way pushes will be registered.
alternately, you would have had the option to eject the repo and that would clone the template into your github and then update the source of the service.

let me give it a try, instead i have removed the service and added a new service from scratch directly connected with github

yeah unfortunately that is the case, the service is basically bugged now

or you can deploy the template again and follow the correct flow as listed above

@Brody Iets say im using strapy cloud for current deployemnt, If I want to migrate I cannot use the same repo to deploy on railway. Whats the best way to embed dockerfile or railway config?

does strapi cloud provide you with a way to download a copy of your project?


ibrahimzahoorHOBBY

how does your hosted strapi save media? to disk?


ibrahimzahoorHOBBY

yes it does saves to disk but i'll update to AWS S3 or cloudinary

so you just dont know how to deploy mysql and strapi without a template, but the template isnt really what you want since its different, do i have that correct?


ibrahimzahoorHOBBY

yes you're right. what I'm asking is is there anything configured in template which tells it to configure it as a strapi project ?


10 months ago

the template itself is setup to give you a starter strapi app, but you dont want a starter app.


10 months ago

that means its more of a manually process, and id be happy to do that for you if i had access to the backup, codebase, etc
