Unable to build client side of CRUD app.
Good Evening, I hope everyone is well. I'm new to deploying to railway and fullstack and I'm stuck on deploying a CRUD app.
This is what I have so far, any help would be greatly appreciated. My project id is : 66f997fc-fd5a-467c-a115-93b1badaf202
App is divided into two parts the api and client.
API : https://fullstackapp-production-36a6.up.railway.app/ Client : should be https://client-production-cf5a.up.railway.app Added the client (The log for the client is attached ) . When I deployed it I got an error that says
- UndefinedVar: Usage of undefined variable '$NIXPACKS_PATH' (line 18) LegacyKeyValueFormat: "ENV key=value" should be used instead of legacy "ENV key value" format (line 18) I have no idea what this means and I'm a bit new at this so I apologize if I ask alot of questions. Thank you very much for your help and your patience.

Essentially, you just need to resynchronize your lockfile, which you can do by running
npm install and then committing again@Fragly okay.. I'll do that.. thank you
@Fragly I just need to reinsall react again on the client side?
You just need to run
npm install on your side to resync the the package-lock file
Also if you're using react app then I'd recommend you copy the Caddyfile and nixpacks.toml from this repo by Brody into your repo:
https://github.com/brody192/create-react-app-starter
( or if you're using vite then just do the same with https://github.com/brody192/vite-react-template )
This just ensures you're running it properly on Railway@Fragly Thank you for assisting me, with the project. I removed package-lock.json and it was able to deploy. But when I typed npm install to create a new package-lock.json and pushed a new version it failed. Also should I create a new thread
We can keep going in this thread, can you share your build logs?
sure..give me one moment
sorry to bother you on this
no worries!
It's still not synchronized D: this time it's even more unsynchronized cause there's a whole dependency missing too now
awww nooo
how do you see it
If you did run
npm install and then didn't change anything in your package.json afterwards which may have lead to it losing synchronization again then I'm wondering if you're not perhaps gitignoring the lockfile and github is now just storing a super duper outdated lockfile 🤔
in your build logs:
i do have a .gitignore in my client folder
is it set to ignore the lockfile?
