railway's cron schedular does not let you run at a frequency of 1 minute, if you need the script to be ran at one minute intervals you would need to either use an in code schedular (active container as you call it) or use in restart mode.

but before we worry about cron at all, we would need to get your script to at least launch, and for that, please provide your repo and any error messages you are getting.

the error is very likely that nixpacks is unable to generate a build plan, since your script isn’t following the usual naming conventions (eg. main.py)

but that can be worked around

What is the lowest frequency?

Figured out I could just use a dockerfile

Dropping it here if anyone references this in future

# Use an official Python runtime as a parent image
FROM python:3.9-slim

# Set the working directory in the container
WORKDIR /usr/src/app

# Copy the current directory contents into the container at /usr/src/app
COPY . /usr/src/app

# Install any needed packages specified in requirements.txt
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt

# Run simulate.py when the container launches
CMD ["python", "./simulate.py"]```

yeah that looks fine to me

ill check

it appears you can now do 1 minute intervals natively, i distinctly remember them disallowing that, at least the ui tells me that it will run every minute

Just found docs saying 15 mins

The UI does let me set every minute though

Doesn't seem like it runs at all

fair enough

Bug report?

I'll go away to the cron template

its just a ui bug, nothing of major concern

the min frequency is indeed 15 minutes for hobby users
