Hello, I'm currently trying to run my applications backend. The backend consists of a golang application which calls a couple of python scripts. The logs keep telling me this:

"python3": executable file not found in $PATH

I'm not sure what to do, because I don't have much experience when it comes to infrastructure.

Hello,

Have you tried adding python to the list of providers in your service settings?

You will also need to set CGO_ENABLED=1

Hey brody, thanks for the fast response!

CGO_ENABLED=1 this as one of the variables?

Do I have to reference it in my code or is it only for the internal pipeline?

It is a service variable, you do not need to use it in code, it is used only by Nixpacks.

sorry for the spam. My "v" key got stuck lel.

This is the correct place, right?

Unless I'm blind, I do not see the variable set in any of those screenshots?

Is there a documentation where I could've found the answers you just gave me?

This basics page would be very helpful for people new to Railway, it will get you caught up on the terminology -
