Hi @ArDev. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- The error message you're seeing suggests that there might be an issue with your database server not running at the expected location. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue: 1. Check your database connection settings: Ensure that your database is set up correctly and that the connection settings in your Wasp app are correct. You can specify the database to use in the app declaration's db field in your Wasp code (source (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/data-model/backends#api-reference)). 2. Check your Railway project settings: Make sure that your Railway project is set up correctly. You should have a PostgreSQL service provisioned and the DATABASE_URL environment variable should be set correctly in your Railway project settings (source (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/advanced/deployment/manually#railway-server-client-and-database)). 3. Check your Railway deployment: If you're deploying your Wasp app to Railway, make sure you've followed all the steps correctly. This includes running wasp build to build your app, linking your app to your Railway project with railway link, setting up the required environment variables, and deploying your project with railway up (source (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/advanced/deployment/manually#deploying-the-server)). If you're still having issues after checking these things, it might be helpful to provide more information about your setup or to reach out to Railway's support for assistance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @ArDev, I seem to be having a bit of trouble. Don't worry though, I've pinged my support and they will try to fix me up! :technologist: Perhaps try again in 15mins?

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- The error message you're seeing indicates that the DATABASE_URL environment variable is not set or is resolving to an empty string. This environment variable is required for Prisma to connect to your database. Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue: 1. Set the DATABASE_URL environment variable: You need to set this environment variable to the connection string of your database. The connection string should be in the following format for a PostgreSQL database: postgresql://USER:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT/DATABASE. Replace USER, PASSWORD, HOST, PORT, and DATABASE with your actual database credentials. 2. Check your .env file: Wasp uses .env files to manage environment variables. Make sure you have a .env file in your project root and that it contains a line like DATABASE_URL="postgresql://USER:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT/DATABASE" with your actual database connection string. 3. Check your Wasp and Prisma setup: Make sure you're correctly setting up your Wasp project and Prisma. When you run wasp db migrate-dev, Wasp should correctly pick up the DATABASE_URL that you specified in your .env file (source (https://github.com/wasp-lang/wasp/issues/940)). If you're still having issues after checking these things, it might be helpful to provide more information about your setup or to reach out to the Wasp community or Prisma support for assistance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @ArDev, I seem to be having a bit of trouble.

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- The error message you're seeing indicates that you have a DATABASE_URL environment variable defined in your .env.server file. This is causing a conflict because Wasp is trying to run the development database for you, but it's detecting that you're already using a custom database due to the presence of the DATABASE_URL environment variable. Here's how you can resolve this issue: 1. Remove the DATABASE_URL environment variable from your .env.server file: If you want Wasp to run the development database for you, you should remove the DATABASE_URL environment variable from your .env.server file. This will allow Wasp to automatically manage the database for you. 2. Use the wasp db migrate-dev command: If you want to use a custom database, you should use the wasp db migrate-dev command instead of wasp start db. This command will apply database migrations and update the database schema according to your Prisma schema file (source (https://github.com/wasp-lang/wasp/issues/940)). Remember to replace the DATABASE_URL in your .env.server file with the actual connection string of your database when you're ready to connect to your custom database. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @ArDev, I seem to be having a bit of trouble.

@kapa.ai throw new Error(${envVarName} env variable is required when using the ${providerName} auth provider.); Error: GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID env variable is required when using the Google auth provider. this is when doing railway up but in my .env file there is a google client id in "[myid]"

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- The error message you're seeing indicates that the GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID environment variable is not being recognized when you're running railway up. This could be due to a few reasons: 1. Environment variable not set in Railway: When deploying with Railway, you need to set your environment variables in the Railway dashboard. This is because the .env file is not used when deploying your application. You can set the GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID and GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET in the Variables tab of your Railway project settings (source (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/advanced/deployment/manually#deploying-the-server)). 2. Incorrect variable name: Ensure that the environment variable name in your .env file and in your Railway settings exactly matches GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID. It should be exactly the same, including case. 3. Incorrect file location: The .env file should be located at the root of your project. If it's in a different location, the environment variables might not be picked up correctly. If you've checked all these things and you're still seeing the error, it might be helpful to provide more information about your setup or to reach out to the Wasp community or Railway support for further assistance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @ArDev, I seem to be having a bit of trouble.

Please read these docs on env vars and differences between dev and production: https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/project/env-vars The .env.server file is only relevant in dev. You need to set the env vars for the server app on Railway for things to work in production.
Env Variables | Wasp
Environment variables are used to configure projects based on the context in which they run. This allows them to exhibit different behaviors in different environments, such as development, staging, or production.

@kapa.ai in railway do i make my client component use my custom domain?
kapa.ai
kapa.aiā€¢3mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To make your client component use your custom domain in Railway, you need to set the WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL environment variable to your custom domain. Here are the steps: 1. Set up your custom domain: First, you need to set up your custom domain with your domain provider and point it to your Railway project. This usually involves adding DNS records to your domain settings. The exact steps can vary depending on your domain provider. 2. Set WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL environment variable: Once your custom domain is set up, you need to set the WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL environment variable in your Railway project settings. This should be set to your custom domain. For example, if your custom domain is <https://mycoolapp.com,> you would set WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL to <https://mycoolapp.com.> Here's how you can set the environment variable in Railway:
wasp deploy fly cmd --context server secrets set WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL=<https://mycoolapp.com>
wasp deploy fly cmd --context server secrets set WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL=<https://mycoolapp.com>
Make sure to replace <https://mycoolapp.com> with your actual custom domain (source (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/advanced/deployment/cli#using-a-custom-domain-for-your-app)). 3. Redeploy your app: After setting the environment variable, you need to redeploy your app for the changes to take effect. You can do this by running railway up in your project directory. Now, your client component should use your custom domain when making requests to the server. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @ArDev, I seem to be having a bit of trouble.

client-production-0ce1.up.railway.app/:1 Access to XMLHttpRequest at 'https://junction.proxy.rlwy.net/auth/me' from origin 'https://client-production-0ce1.up.railway.app' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. @kapa.ai

kapa.aiā€¢3mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- The error message you're seeing is related to Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS), which is a security feature that restricts how resources on a web page can be requested from another domain. This error typically occurs when a web application tries to access resources (like a REST API) on a different domain, protocol, or port to its own. In the context of a Wasp application, you might encounter this error if your client (frontend) and server (backend) are not correctly configured to allow cross-origin requests. Here's how you can resolve this issue: 1. Set up CORS on your server: You need to configure your server to allow cross-origin requests from your client. This usually involves setting the Access-Control-Allow-Origin header to the domain of your client. In Wasp, this can be done in the server's main file (usually server.js or server.ts). 2. Set WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL environment variable: In your Railway project settings, set the WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL environment variable to the domain of your client. This tells your server where to expect requests from. For example, if your client is hosted at <https://client-production-0ce1.up.railway.app,> you would set WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL to <https://client-production-0ce1.up.railway.app> (source (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/advanced/deployment/manually#deploying-the-server)). 3. Check your client's requests: Make sure your client is making requests to the correct server domain. If your client is making requests to a different domain (like <https://junction.proxy.rlwy.net/auth/me> in your error message), you might need to update your client's configuration to use the correct server domain. If you've checked all these things and you're still seeing the error, it might be helpful to provide more information about your setup or to reach out to the Wasp community or Railway support for further assistance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @ArDev, I seem to be having a bit of trouble.

@kapa.ai im getting cors issues, do i need to configure soemthing in railway?
kapa.ai
kapa.aiā€¢3mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books: ---------------------- CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing) issues typically arise due to server-side configurations and are not directly related to the Railway platform. However, you do need to ensure that your environment variables are correctly set in Railway, as these can affect your server's CORS configuration. Here are some steps you can take to resolve CORS issues: 1. Configure CORS in your Wasp application: Wasp allows you to define custom middleware for your APIs in the Wasp file. You can use this feature to enable CORS for your APIs. Here's an example of how to do this (source (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/advanced/apis#making-sure-cors-works)):
// In main.wasp
apiNamespace fooBar {
middlewareConfigFn: import { fooBarNamespaceMiddlewareFn } from "@src/apis",
path: "/foo"
}

// In src/apis.js
export const apiMiddleware = (config) => {
return config;
};
// In main.wasp
apiNamespace fooBar {
middlewareConfigFn: import { fooBarNamespaceMiddlewareFn } from "@src/apis",
path: "/foo"
}

// In src/apis.js
export const apiMiddleware = (config) => {
return config;
};
In this example, the default middleware, which enables CORS for all APIs under the /foo path, is returned. 2. Set WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL environment variable in Railway: In your Railway project settings, set the WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL environment variable to the domain of your client. This tells your server where to expect requests from (source (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/advanced/deployment/manually#deploying-the-server)). 3. Check your client's requests: Make sure your client is making requests to the correct server domain. If your client is making requests to a different domain, you might need to update your client's configuration to use the correct server domain. If you've checked all these things and you're still seeing CORS issues, it might be helpful to provide more information about your setup or to reach out to the Wasp community for further assistance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ---------------------- Sorry @ArDev, I seem to be having a bit of trouble.

@ArDev what is your final status here, and can you possibly describe the problem from the start, in details?
miho
mihoā€¢3mo ago
You'll need to update the WASP_WEB_CLIENT_URL=https://mycoolapp.com env var in the server app to match the new client domain for CORS to work out of the box šŸ™‚
