Anyone have docs or a tutorial on how to deploy to Railway? My service starts but after a few mins it crashes and I’m not sure why. So far the deployment logs don’t seem to have any clues.

As far as I can tell this is the cause

Not really sure what keys it’s looking for though or why I didn’t need them on my localhost.
Just found this. Deploy Strapi on Railway | Railway. Wish I’d known there was a template before I got started. But now I kinda still want my plugins etc… and I’d like to get it working with SQLite if possible (long term the plan it to host the database on Turso)
