Hi! Do you have a [main.py](main.py) file or a requirements.txt file on the root path?
https://railpack.com/languages/python/#detection

yeah

i have both

It happened again

What does your file structure looks like? I’ll see if I can reproduce this

Is there any updates?

I didn't try it yet! Will do later this day

Could u try with a Dockerfile?

i have no experience with Dockerfiles but i will try

its working now but it might be only temporary, i will wait atleast 4 hours to see if it will crash again or not

just crashed again

It is using railpack, not a Dockerfile as stated there

and I wonder why it is showing ./ as your app content

did u set any root path related env var or do you have your files in a subdir?

No I didn't set any path related var, and I have my files in root in my github repository

finishing some things, will try to reproduce this

I don't if that's normal or not but whenever that issue happens it for some reason makes the orignal deployment sleeping and then makes another deployment that always makes build failed errors

Could not reproduce this in any way and this randomness of runs that deploy successfully and others that just fail on build tell me it's something else

if you could remove every deploy and disable serverless

Well… I am free tier so I can't disable serverless

i think i have found the issue and it looks like a bug in railway's side?

apparently i shouldn't be able to make cronjobs in the first place because my project is forced to be serverless but somehow my project still have it, so it tries to run a cronjob when the deployment is sleeping which causes all that build errors?

Yep, that's it

I forgot that serverless can't run cron jobs, my bad this conversation would've been shorter lol.

nah its my bad too, i should have noticed it sooner lol

Just some extra info before I raise this to the team, you created the project while u were at trial?

yeah

And now ur in the free plan

yea

Ok, thanks

!t

@YTangeldog2145 - how did you set a cron schedule?

from the project's setting while i was in trial

ah i see

so you will need to be on a paid plan to do any kind of CRON going forward, CRONs of any kind be that native platform CRONs or in-code CRONs or jobs are not going to work with serverless.

i see, well what if i made a fastapi project that waits for requests to run the code (serverless projects can wake up when recieving requests right?) from an external website called https://cron-job.org/en/, will that be ok?

yes, but at that point just get hobby 😆

well 5 dollars in my country is alot and its hard to pay that per month(also feels like a waste to pay that when my project only takes less than a dollar per month), and even if i can there is also the issue with getting a payment method that works internationally as its harder to get those

and i am only an unemployed student after all ¯_(ツ)_/¯

fair enough
