Hello,

Sorry that it has been so difficult, but unfortunately I don't have any Railway specific guides on deploying an asp.net project, but fortunately, it wouldn't be Railway specific! - you just need a working Dockerfile in the root of your project and we will build with that!

I'm sure there are plenty of great resources online that you can find that will teach you how to write a Dockerfile for an asp.net application, as long as it can be ran in a linux container, then you can write a Dockerfile for it!

Best,
Brody

Hi Brody, I have tried my best with every possible setting in the Dockerfile with not success. It keeps on failing with this error ([7/9] COPY . /app/.[7/9] COPY . /app/. 61ms[8/9] RUN dotnet publish --no-restore -c Release -o outMSBuild version 17.3.2+561848881 for .NET/app/WhatsappJumpUri/WhatsappJumpUri.csproj(261,3): error MSB4019: The imported project "/nix/store/0f43yfx91hg74bcp66qkbp97zv3ln27i-dotnet-sdk-6.0.413/sdk/6.0.413/Microsoft/VisualStudio/v17.0/WebApplications/Microsoft.WebApplication.targets" was not found. Confirm that the expression in the Import declaration "/nix/store/0f43yfx91hg74bcp66qkbp97zv3ln27i-dotnet-sdk-6.0.413/sdk/6.0.413/Microsoft/VisualStudio/v17.0/WebApplications/Microsoft.WebApplication.targets" is correct, and that the file exists on disk.✕ [8/9] RUN dotnet publish --no-restore -c Release -o out process "/bin/bash -ol pipefail -c dotnet publish --no-restore -c Release -o out" did not complete successfully: exit code: 1Dockerfile:23

ERROR: failed to solve: process "/bin/bash -ol pipefail -c dotnet publish --no-restore -c Release -o out" did not complete successfully: exit code: 1Error: Docker build failed). I brought in grok and claude to help with the problem but to no avail. I will appreciate any help to get this solution hosted on railway.

Hello,

You are trying to use Nixpacks, I would recommend you use a Dockerfile.
