I'm deploying postgres with schema for the first time and get 'pid failures':

Hey there! We've found the following might help you get unblocked faster:
- 🧵 i cant get my datbase to stop crashing
- 🧵 Postgres crashing in Metal (new)
- 🧵 Postgres crash: volume mount error failed to exec gzid
- 🧵 Rails 8 Deployment Failing due to pg_config
If you find the answer from one of these, please let us know by solving the thread!

go into the service settings, then the deploy tab, and clearing out any custom start command or pre-deploy commands that might be set. just reset them to defaults and redeploy. the catatonit pid1 error usually means the container init process is messed up and this should sort it out

I need to provision schema and data into the postgres database and have tried adding
Build Command:
npm install && npx prisma generate && npm run build
Start Command:
npx prisma migrate deploy && npm start
to my app service, but it keeps reverting to npm install and npm start.
I did try adding npm commands to the postgres container and this is were the pid problem arises. Like you suggest, if I remove all custom commands, it builds, but has no schema and no data.

i see the issue , those commands should be on your app service, not the postgres service. leave postgres with no custom commands.
on your app service, try setting the start command to: /bin/sh -c "npx prisma migrate deploy && npm start"
the shell wrapper is needed otherwise the container exits after migrations finish. your build command looks fine as is
