Dockerfile:
FROM nginx:alpine
ARG ENVIRONMENT
COPY $ENVIRONMENT /usr/share/nginx/html

folder has staging (folder), production (folder), dockerfile.

Previously I had just site (folder), dockefile.

Site on its own worked fine, now that I have added in a new env, the site doesnt load. Nginx logs dont show anything

i think youre forgetting a PORT service variable, set it to 80

winter socket Nov 9, 2023, 6:04 PM

#

ah!

#

let me try that. so just add PORT to the env vars in railway?

#

I didnt have the port variable previously

#

theres your problem

Adding port worked thanks :). Why did it work without the port before?

tranquil laurel Nov 9, 2023, 6:09 PM

#

with the same nginx setup, it would not have worked without a PORT service variable set, the template that i think you used sets one for you
