Cron Job no longer executing

Similar to a thread yesterday (https://station.railway.com/questions/cron-job-not-executing-anymore-246ffcd7) my cron job has been running fine for months and has suddenly stopped working. It is failing to update nightly and when I run manually.

I wondered if it's related to the NIXPACKS deprecation, but that should still work for existing projects. If that is the case, some communication that a non-compatible change is upcoming would have been appreciated.

{
    "$schema": "https://railway.app/railway.schema.json",
    "build": {
      "builder": "NIXPACKS"
    },
    "deploy": {
      "cronSchedule": "15 22 * * *",
      "startCommand": "python manage.py update_wrapper"
    }
}

As with the linked thread, abandoning the config file in favour of configuring via the UI worked. I'll wait until support comment on whether this is the "correct" solution, though.
