Deploy your Next.js app to Railway
Step-by-step deployment help for Next.js apps on Railway. We fix Next.js-specific deployment issues, configure Railway, and get your app live. From $19.
Next.js issues we fix before deploying
Common Next.js problems that affect Railway deployments.
Unprotected API routes
Next.js API routes and server actions without authentication checks, allowing anyone to call them directly.
Server action data exposure
Server actions that return sensitive data to the client or don't validate user permissions before modifying data.
Incorrect middleware configuration
Auth middleware that doesn't cover all protected routes, uses wrong matchers, or can be bypassed with URL manipulation.
Missing ISR/SSG configuration
Pages that should be statically generated are server-rendered on every request, causing unnecessary load and slower responses.
Railway deployment issues we check for
Common Railway problems that break Next.js apps in production.
Nixpacks detects the wrong build system
Monorepo projects or apps with multiple package managers confuse Nixpacks auto-detection, resulting in incorrect build commands and failed deployments.
Volume data lost on redeploy
AI-generated apps store uploaded files or SQLite databases on the filesystem without configuring Railway volumes, losing all data on each new deployment.
Private networking misconfigured between services
Internal service communication uses public URLs instead of Railway's private network (*.railway.internal), adding latency and exposing internal APIs publicly.
Health check endpoint missing
Railway restarts services that fail health checks. AI-generated servers often lack a /health endpoint, causing unnecessary restart loops.
