Kindly review the screenshots I provided.

Maybe your volume is mounting over /app and wiping out your app files inside the container, so when the container starts, it can’t find your app files and crashes.

Try mounting the volume somewhere else.

My thoughts as well

Try mounting elsewhere and if you are using a Dockerfile check the workdir as well

This looks like a permission issue, you node app's user doesn't have the permission to write to the volume.

So we could finish this quicker. This platform's forum like conversation doesn't allow for quick conversations.

I adhere to this document Using Volumes | Railway Docs

Relative Paths

Nixpacks, the default buildpack used by Railway, puts your application files in an /app folder at the root of the container. If your application writes to a directory at a relative path, and you need to persist that data on the volume, your mount path should include the app path.

For example, if your application writes data to ./data, you should mount the volume to /app/data.

please see my variables, I also added RAILWAY_RUN_UID=0

I just tried to reproduce this by running a node application, have it built by nixpacks and then mount a volume at /app/logs
It worked without a hitch. No RAILWAY_RUN_UID required as nixpacks runs the node process as root by default.

You need to share your code with me to get to the root of this issue. Maybe add my email to your git repo temporarily so i can do a review ?
