Bulid command failed to cd into target directory

I have a React app located within a GitHub repo, like this

Github repo
|-----------react_app
|-----------"other stuff"

This is my build command
cd react_app && npm install && npm run build for build command

However, build failed with error
#13 0.404 /bin/bash: line 1: cd: web_chat: No such file or directory

On build settings, I have / as root directory

I am new to Railway, would greatly appreciate any help

share your repo please?

and web_chat is the react app

for your react app, please update it according to this template
https://github.com/brody192/create-react-app-starter

once done, let me know and i will tell you the next step

Thanks for helping! I think my app has a similar structure. The app is just located in a subdirectory in the repo

also, remove @railway/cli from the dependencies

Should I create a new repo with only the react app?

no no

you just need to use serve like my template does

remove the key and regen it please

Yea I kept the repo private before...

its still bad even on private repos

I see. lesson learned. thanks

please make the changes to your react app i suggested

Is this what you are refering to?

yes

I made the changes

now it looks like this.
also removed dependency on @railway/cli and all those api keys...

you have not installed serve

and your lock file is out of sync

running npm i serve will fix both those things

just did that

I see the lock file is updated

okay, show me your service variables please

oh I don't have any...

perfect

clear both your build and start commands

sorry... total noob here

not know how to clear those things?

in build settings?

in the service settings

This is my build command
cd react_app && npm install && npm run build for build command

where did you have this set?

in build command in the screenshot above

perfect

next step

set Root Directory to /web_chat in the service settings

done

and tell me if anything goes wrong

ok. building now.
how come the build log says No build logs found for deployment

screenshot please

well thats not supposed to happen lol

you are welcome to cancel it and try again

hmmm I also tried railway up from terminal
I was able to see logs there

you don't need to use railway up, you are deploying from github

build succeed and it says active! but I still see no logs

unlucky

can you access the site with the domain?

go to the service settings and generate one

I thought railway would give me an URL to access the site

yea

I can

Just generated a URL

you have to tell railway you want want first, since you could be running a discord bot for example, that doesn't need a domain so it would be wasteful to generate one if it might not be needed

I see

Normally there should be logs right?

yes normally, but railway is in the progress of migrating their logging infrastructure so you might have got caught up in that

I see. Thank you so much!

so website works?

yes.
But seems like the flask server is not running.

Is there anything I need to do for the concurrently?

yes that would need to be ran in a separate service

I see...

move it to its own root folder

then create a new service deplying from the same github repo, and just the root dir accordingly

Will do. Thank you so much!

no problem!

heres an example flask app
