Okay. If dev is working fine, prod should run fine too

alothough i exported them manually then too start error
exported them manually
then too does not start
rm -rf dist
npx nx reset
npm run build
npm run start:prod
tried again and again
docker build the one provided in production working fine
Did you copy .env.example to .env?
yes
using node v20
Ohhh
You need to add the JWT_SECRET=“”
And then
npm run dev
Make sure you have random string in jwt secret and it should be at least 12 characters
Make sure you installed pg admin postgres and set
{DATABASE_URL="postgresql://postiz-user:postiz-password@localhost:5432/postiz-db-local"}
then
npm run prisma-db-push
The main issue is that you are using wrong password or username of your db
everything fine in development
npm run dev
work fine
but not not npm run start:prod
@ilearnbydoing just a clarification, in production, are you trying to run the docker?
Docker works fine production
I am trying to setup dev environment for mono repo
I followed the official developer guide it does not work while starting with npm run start:prod
It does not read .env and when I export all .env variables then too its not starting up
hey @ilearnbydoing did you ever solve this, do you still need help?
