Bucket credential creation fails with "unexpected error" — existing bucket works fine

Creating a new bucket succeeds, but credential provisioning always fails.

Project: total_module / environment: production / region: sjc

Plan: Hobby

New bucket: businesscard_qr_bucket (ID dd6e4dfe-d23f-459e-82e3-16b4bfacade9)

  • railway bucket credentials -> "BucketInstanceCredential not found"
  • railway bucket credentials --reset -> "We couldn't create bucket credentials due to an unexpected error."
  • Dashboard Credentials tab shows the same "unexpected error"

Existing bucket: doll_gacha_bucket (ID 17f62c9a-2222-428d-8338-11cc155f28f0), same project/region

  • credentials return normally

What I already ruled out:

  • Not region (both sjc)
  • Not the name (recreated via CLI with a clean name)
  • Not the dashboard (CLI v5.26.1 fails identically)
  • Not a platform incident (status page shows Buckets 100% operational)
  • Docs state no limit on number of buckets per project

The bucket itself is created (has ID/region), only the credential record is never provisioned.

Is there an account-level issue, or is this a bug in credential provisioning?

Hey! This was a platform-wide bug in bucket credential provisioning on July 16 (status page: https://status.railway.com/incident/6K0GZ5NQ). It only affected credential creation, which is why your existing bucket kept working while the new one failed. It was fixed the same day.

Please run railway bucket credentials --reset for businesscard_qr_bucket again. It should now provision correctly. If it still fails, reply here and we'll take a closer look.
