Flask App Doesn't Start Successfully After Deploying On Ibm Toolchain

The same code worked perfectly on my local machine and I could visit the deployed app at localhost:5000. However, when I uploaded the files on GitHub and then deployed them on IBM

Solution 1:

If your app takes a long time to start, you may want to consider setting timeout in your manifest.yml.

Also note that VCAP_APP_PORT is deprecated and you should use PORT.

Try using python instead of python3 in your Procfile. And try to add a runtime.txt file like https://github.com/IBM-Cloud/cloud-sql-database/blob/master/runtime.txt
