Update: Migrating the simplest possible Rails app from free-tier to free-tier didn't work on Render (deploys fail, no logs to be found), so I'm bailing out to try Fly.

To any render people reading this, it appears to have been an issue with the migration plugin and the Heroku-18 stack. Manually deploying the app worked fine.

Thanks for the heads up and good to hear you were able to deploy the app manually. We might deprecate the migrator because it's hard to keep up with all the Heroku stack and buildpack configs and because manual migrations are relatively straightforward.

Completely understandable. I’ve been configuring stuff with Render all morning and I’m really starting to like this service.

Is there a way to assign an existing Env Group when manually creating a new service? So far I've needed to create and then go back in and assign.

Thanks! Re: Env Groups, not yet, but we are overhauling the new service flow and will definitely incorporate adding env groups.

Update for fairness: Fly.io failed even quicker.

Every attempt fails. There's no way I can run this for $250/mo on AWS. Now I have to pretend I'm a sysadmin and use Hetzner.
