Django ASGI app deploys successfully but is completely inaccessible - all URLs return "Application failed to respond"
Setup:
- Django 5.1.3 + DRF with ASGI (Gunicorn + Uvicorn workers)
- Pre-deploy: python manage.py migrate --noinput
- Start command: python manage.py collectstatic --noinput && gunicorn backend.asgi:application -k uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker -w 2 --bind [::]:$PORT
What's Working:
- 
App builds and deploys without errors
- Gunicorn starts correctly on the assigned port (PORT is: 8080)
- Workers boot successfully
- No error logs or crashes
What's NOT Working:
- 
All HTTP requests return "Application failed to respond"
- No incoming request logs in Gunicorn (suggests requests aren't reaching the app)
- Service stops instantly and gives the following error:

Looks like your container stopped.

Can you share what the metrics tab shows? Is it possible you're hitting an out of memory error?
Additionally it would be great if you could share the repository if it is open source.

I dont think it is a metrics issue since the container instantly stops

I am a bit curious if this is a ipv6 binding vs ipv4.
Can you change the bind command from :: to 0.0.0.0

This is resolved, the issue was actually a catch all route I had in Django, and the railway couldn't actually show anything on the server

For future reference, Gunicorn will dual stack bind when binding to [::]
