Hi Railway Team,
I need help with a persistent volume attachment on an isolated development service.
Project: PeopleFlow Cloud DEV
Project ID: 85150549-5ec2-47d5-b7cf-16ba0e57fc70
Service: peopleflow-dev
Service ID: febbc7e8-fce0-4c4c-b575-f2297f1d1e69
Environment ID: 4d4c28e2-7532-40bf-8946-6ceadf604d18
The service is healthy and currently has:
multiRegionConfig: {sfo: {numReplicas: 1}}
I am trying to attach one 512 MB persistent volume mounted at:
/app/data
The volume is successfully staged and the staged changes are committed, but afterward the volume disappears and does not appear in the environment or service configuration.
This has happened repeatedly with these volume IDs:
f6755df0-b33b-400e-aeaa-4fbf85f2d4af
815fb1c9-1a78-498a-96ba-4314788e5abc
802dbaba-5159-4fc6-90c0-0ca6f0db9ea9
Latest commit workflow:
0e1ac4d7-ab25-4100-bda3-6ed8f54bf560
Railway documentation states that replicas cannot be used with volumes, but it is unclear whether an explicit numReplicas: 1 counts as replica mode.
Could you please confirm the exact configuration change required to make this service volume-compatible while keeping exactly one running instance?
Specifically, should we:
remove multiRegionConfig completely,
set multiRegionConfig to null,
or use another configuration?
Please also advise why the volume commit completes without exposing an error even though the volume does not become attached.
Thank you.

The volume is not silently disappearing. The commit is failing with the error "Max size of 500 MB on current plan. Please select a valid size or upgrade," which you can see in the Deploy bar for that environment. Choosing a volume size within your plan's limit or upgrading your plan will let the volume attach. On the replica question, volumes cannot be used with replicas, but that constraint is not what is blocking this commit.
