Despite adding a requirements.txt, and checking the loads to see if it downloads the modules (which it seems to do) it crashes on deploy

pip install -r requirements.txt

Collecting pymysql (from -r requirements.txt (line 1))

Downloading pymysql-1.1.2-py3-none-any.whl.metadata (4.3 kB)

Collecting flask (from -r requirements.txt (line 2))

Downloading flask-3.1.2-py3-none-any.whl.metadata (3.2 kB)

Collecting pydotenv (from -r requirements.txt (line 3))...

File "/app/connexion_db.py", line 4, in <module>

from dotenv import load_dotenv

Your project is deploying correctly, but it crashes when the app starts because a required Python package is missing.

In your code you have:

from dotenv import load_dotenv

This function comes from the package python-dotenv.

However, in your requirements.txt you installed:

pydotenv

These two packages are different, and pydotenv does not provide load_dotenv, which causes the crash.

How to fix

  1. Open your requirements.txt

  2. Replace:

    pydotenv

    with:

    python-dotenv

  3. Save the file and redeploy the project

Once the correct package is installed, your app should start normally.
