I have 4 services each with a dedicated scheduled cron job from 1 monorepo. The services are clearly defined in railway.toml and their dashboards. Even though the confirmation says that there was a recent run of the cron, it's pretty obvious to me that the cron isn't actually running.
So now, I'm getting confused.
Are railway cron commands using the railway.toml or the dockerfile ?
I was able to execute my python module manually in the container for the service so I can confirm that the module is operational, but it appears that the cron isn't triggering it even though I can confirm each service is configured correctly in railway.toml (based on documentation).
[[cron]]
service = "hh-mvp-stack-short"
schedule = "0 16 * * *"
command = "/app/backend/db/run_migrations.sh && cd /app && python -m backend.worker.scheduler --mode short-termPlease advise

It's pretty obvious that we need more support around Cron with this many threads started about it. None of these answers helped my situation.
