Railway error
Hi, I'm having trouble deploying on Railway. When I try to deploy, I get an error saying, 'Oh No! Looks like something went wrong and the train derailed.' I'm on the trial plan and have followed the steps provided, but the deployment isn't working. Could someone help me understand why I'm unable to deploy? Thanks!

You're likely on limited trial plan which doesn't allow code deploys (meaning you're limited to database deploys), this happens when Railway considers your github account suspicious which can happen when your github account is new or inactive
Unfortunately there's no workaround, you'll have to upgrade to hobby plan to deploy code on Railway...

Oh okay... Thank you for the explanation! That makes sense since I created my GitHub account very recently.
No problem
My github is 2 years old and active though?
I took a look at your GitHub, it looks to be a few months old and can definitely be considered young
Keep in mind that the actual method Railway uses to deem whether your GitHub account is suspicious or not is unknown
Being new and or inactive is simply deductions that can be made on what could be seen as suspicious
I see, I'm fine with paying 5$, but I don't need to pay each month for what I need.
Credits can be used w/o being on a plan?
I'm not sure what you mean, mind rephrasing your question?
You use "credits" as a way to deploy if I'm correct, do I need to be on the active plan in order to use the credits?
You use "credits" as a way to deploy if I'm correctYes, if you're on a credit based plan, but you don't need to purchase credits directly if you're on a usage based plan
do I need to be on the active plan in order to use the credits?Yes, you need to be subscribed to a plan to use Railway
so I in general can't deploy w/o being on a plan?
Yea
Alright, thanks.
No problem 🙂
