npm run dev is for development. What's the build script in your package.json file? The one that runs for it to build your app for production.

it's vite build, this is my package.json. How can i change it to make it like my normal website when deploying in railway?

{

    "private": true,

    "type": "module",

    "scripts": {

        "build": "vite build",

        "dev": "vite"

    },

    "devDependencies": {

        "autoprefixer": "^10.4.20",

        "axios": "^1.7.4",

        "concurrently": "^9.0.1",

        "laravel-vite-plugin": "^1.0",

        "postcss": "^8.5.2",

        "tailwindcss": "^3.4.17",

        "vite": "^5.0"

    },

    "dependencies": {

        "alpinejs": "^3.14.8"

    }

}

Please add the command "npm run build" as a predeploy command in your service settings. This way it can build it before deploying.

Okay I've added npm run build as a Pre-deploy Command, but it still doesn't work. Sorry, would you mind checking again?

This is how it's supposed to look like

But instead it looks like this using the railway link

Did you follow these steps https://tailwindcss.com/docs/installation/framework-guides/laravel/vite before deploying?

yes I did. Can you check what's wrong?

I see this is a Laravel app. I can't see `@tailwindcss/vite` as a dependency even though you said you followed that instruction.

Also please move the dependencies from "devDependencies" to "dependencies".

I've made those changes and it still doesn't work. Sorry, but can you please check what's still missing?

I am trying to help you through it. This is not a deployment issue. It's a config missing in your setup which is frankly a code/app issue, not Railway.

Another thing you should try is to make this change: https://www.lamadly.com/articles/css-not-working-when-deploying-in-railway-app

I really really really appreciate your help. I've added the HTTPS change and it still doesn't work. I'm super stressed out. Sorry, I'm a beginner and this is my first time using both laravel and railway. Please help and tell me what to do next T-T or perhaps you can clone my git repository and tell me whats wrong? please..

If you go to your console/network tab, you can see the issue. Your vite scripts are still being injected wrongly. I can't clone your repo and do it. That's beyond the scope of what I can help with.

However, you can try two things:

1. Deploy the Laravel app from our guide. I personally wrote this guide https://docs.railway.com/guides/laravel

2. Deploy this Laravel template https://railway.com/template/Gkzn4k. You can eject from this template into your repo and also compare it with what you might be doing wrong. This is the repo https://github.com/unicodeveloper/complete-laravel-on-railway

I'm sorry i don't understand. I followed your guide on building the database and all. I really did. There must be a way for me to not start over right? How is the vite scripts inject wrong? can i not fix it from the code? I don't need you to do it, I just want your help to clone my repo and find the mistake. I really tried everything from google, stack overflow, and all. But nothing seems to be working. Please tell me what to fix..

please help

Hello,

I'm really sorry but we cannot provide a level of support greater than what prosper has tried to do for you.

Anything above the level of support he offered would be out of the scope of what these forums are intended for, as your issue is not related to the Railway platform or product, but as prosper pointed out, a misconfiguration on your side.

Again, I'm sorry but we will not be able to provide further assistance here, please read over everything propser has already given you.

Best,
Brody
