Need help with my deployment | Railway | Page 1

Hi, can someone tell me what can be the issue with my deployment? it keeps crashing and sometimes it says that my app is not correctly listening on port. I removed deployment multiple times and I'm still facing the same issue.

#

ok

#

what does ur app do

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:27 PM

#

it's a rest api

little dew Nov 23, 2022, 5:28 PM

#

ok

#

what port r u using

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:28 PM

#

3000

little dew Nov 23, 2022, 5:28 PM

#

did u set that in the env var settings

#

if no, then railway wont be able to figure out what port to show to u

#

so u need to set it in the env var settings

#

alternatively

#

ur code can depend on he value of PORT env var

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:29 PM

#

I did set PORT = process.env.PORT || 3000 isnt that enough

#

I mean i did that with all my previous projects

little dew Nov 23, 2022, 5:30 PM

#

hmm weird

#

idk

#

try setting PORT to 300 in settings ig?

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:30 PM

#

I just did that wait lemme show you

#

#

can i share app.js code with you I mean if you can point out the bug i tried but I could not figure it out

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:34 PM

#

You using a dockerfile?

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:35 PM

#

nope

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:35 PM

#

Huh wierd. What did you set the env var port to?

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:36 PM

#

like the PORT var?

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:37 PM

#

Yea the environment variable in the ss above

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:38 PM

#

3000

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:39 PM

#

i feel like that should be fine. Are you able to share the part of your code that starts the server?

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:39 PM

#

sure

#

like a screenshot or the actual code?

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:40 PM

#

either i guess

#

ss will be fine

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:42 PM

#

#

last is first

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:43 PM

#

Does connected to db get logged?

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:43 PM

#

yes

#

server is listening on port 3000 get logged too

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:45 PM

#

wait shouldnt it be 0.0.0.0:3000?

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:46 PM

#

no?

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:46 PM

#

set the env var port to 0.0.0.0:3000 and se if that works

#

wait actually railway might not like that

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:46 PM

#

in railway?

#

what should I do then?

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:51 PM

#

i would try app.listen("0.0.0.0:3000" , () => orapp.listen(3000, "0.0.0.0" , () =>

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:53 PM

#

wouldn't it be a problem? cuz im deploying it so that ppl can see and interact with it, setting port var like that will make my app non reachable to others tho

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:53 PM

#

wouldn't it be a problem? try it and find out

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:54 PM

#

but when i run my app locally it works just fine tho

#

any idea?

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:54 PM

#

yea cus its listening on localhost or 127.0.01

#

just try 0.0.0.0 and we will find out

#

i wish i knew ofthe top of my head but its been ages since ive written app.listen

prime cairn Nov 23, 2022, 5:55 PM

#

senior i can tell

#

ight i will try 0.0.0.0

glossy tide Nov 23, 2022, 5:56 PM

#

loll

rotund spoke Nov 23, 2022, 5:56 PM

#

prime cairn senior i can tell

based

#

i do indeed think i was wrong

const port = process.env.PORT || 3333;

app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(bodyParser.raw({ type: "application/vnd.custom-type" }));
app.use(bodyParser.text({ type: "text/html" }));

app.get("/", async (req, res) => {
  res.json({ Hello: "World" });
});

app.listen(port, () => {
  console.log(`Example app listening at http://localhost:${port}`);
});

should work

#

try it anyways maybe

#

wait fuckit ill try. 1 sec

Try removing the environment variable "PORT" that you created in railway.app.
Railway should already have a "PORT" env variable set up when you deploy for your app to find.
