Internal Server Error

After a period of inactivity, typically overnight, when I attempt to access my site, I'm met with an "internal server error". This issue seems to resolve itself once I manually restart the application, but it reoccurs after any prolonged downtime.

Hello,

Railway does not shut down deploys after any period of activity unless you enable app sleeping, And you don't have that enabled.

This means it is your app locking up and not responding to requests.

Once issue I can see is that you are using nodemon to run your app, Please do not use nodemon as it can cause instabilities, It should only ever be used for local development.
