Hi Railway support,

I’m trying to deploy a Docker image service using:

devlikeapro/waha-plus

The deployment repeatedly gets stuck on:
“Creating containers...”

Previously I also received:
- Invalid region “sfo”
- Out of memory warning

I already fixed the region and changed it to:
us-west2

Current setup:
- 1 replica
- Public domain generated
- PORT=3000
- Environment variables configured
- Docker image deploy
- PostgreSQL connected

But the deployment still hangs for a very long time and sometimes fails without logs.

Could you please check why the container is not being created properly in this project/environment?

Project:
earnest-nurturing / production

Thanks.

Hello infinimemedia,

the oom warning you got is likely your main blocker and waha-plus bundles a full chromium browser inside so it needs a lot of resources according to waha's own official docs they recommend a minimum of 2 cpu and 4gb ram even for a single session and you are on free plan check your current railway service resource limits and make sure you're meeting that minimum , then redeploy

Hope this help you :)

According to https://waha.devlike.pro/docs/how-to/waha-plus/, waha-plus is a premium docker image that requires login, maybe it is the root cause

Hi, I upgraded from Trial and redeployed the waha-plus service, but it is still stuck on “Creating containers...” for more than 10 minutes.

The service is now configured with:

- Region: US West

- 1 replica

- Public domain

- 4 environment variables

- Docker image: devlikeapro/waha-plus

There are still no deploy logs. Can you please check why Railway cannot create the container?

okay, so what does your railway service show under the "metrics" tab is there any memory or cpu usage visible at all, even briefly, when you trigger a redeploy?

I checked the Metrics tab during redeploy.

There is no CPU usage, no memory usage, and no metrics appearing at all. The deployment stays stuck on "Deploying" / "Creating containers..." and no logs are generated.

okay , did you add your docker hub credentials (username: devlikeapro and your personal key from the patron portal) to railway's image settings when setting up the docker image deployment?

because waha-plus is a private docker image that requires authentication to pull. railway can't pull it without credentials

TN

What are the minimum server requirements to run WAHA Plus with 50 sessions?
