Heyyy, Make sure your DATABASE_URL environment variable is correctly set in Railway’s project settings(no quotes around the URL). If you’re getting the error during build, try using a public database URL (DATABASE_PUBLIC_URL) in your Prisma schema instead. Then run npx prisma generate and redeploy.
